They’ll just re-sign Greene or Coburn. Nothing groundbreaking.

...yup...smartest move...

Andy Greene will be signed by tomorrow for this purpose.

would Coburn fill expansion qualifications?

Just curious, what happens if they submit their list and they don’t have expansion eligible defenseman exposed?

Bye Bye Mayfield

would Coburn fill expansion qualifications?

Yes, he has 59 games played over the past 2 seasons so he is eligible for exposure.

They have to turn over their entire hockey operation to John Chayka for one full year, as penance.

Trade for Seth Jones sign him then leave him exposed??

 

[Disgraced Cosmonaut]

Greene. That is all.

They'd have to remove a D from the protection list.

4th round pick for Brendan Guhle ? (Kaidens older brother).

Canucks will offer the islanders Tyler Myers for a 1st, as there is clearly no other conceivable way to meet expansion requirements.

On a side note - would be hilarious if Greene and Coburn held out for above market contracts, given the bind they could put the islanders in...

4th round pick for Brendan Guhle ? (Kaidens older brother).

He wouldn't fulfill the games played requirement as per the tweet in the OP. Larsson or Shattenkirk (outside of the four I'd assume they want to protect) would be the eligible D the Ducks could offer.

Where’s the real legend, Jack Johnson?

Would be hilarious but this type of thing doesn’t happen to Lou Lamoriello

Would you settle for Richard Panik

Avs can offer a lightly used Erik Johnson, who has also agreed to waive his NMC...
