Honestly, I'm not expecting a lot of these players to even make it to Vegas - I think the GM's of those teams will make decent enough side deals, and let McPhee choose another player he might like.

From my vantage point, there are four players whom I can see McPhee actually selecting for the expansion draft and trading immediately:

Jason Demers
Petr Mrazek
David Perron
Calvin Pickard

I'd be curious to hear the offers for these four players - I like the Mrazek/Perron offers listed above for sure. ;)

I feel like my SJ 2018 2nd + Timashov offer for Gunnarsson is in the same range as this. Yeah they've got to wait a year which I'm sure they'd rather not do, but SJ's 2nd this year was 50th, and should be in a similar spot next year, while Timashov is a high risk high reward winger who holds a little value to bump it up.

I used a general rule of thumb that a 2018 2nd rounder has similar value to a 2017 3rd rounder. Based on that I didn't think Timashov quite made up the value difference between the picks though I agree they're close in value.

Sharks offer-

2018 1st
Hertl

For

Dumba
Vegas 6th OA 2017

Please read the Guidelines in the Op. If your bid includes a pick from Vegas it needs to be lower then the pick your team is offering. And if the picks are in different years I may discount the value of the later year pick.

p.s. Why this restriction? I'm trying to focus this auction on the value of the exposed players Vegas could select and flip. Trades with Vegas giving up other big assets besides the auction player cloud that, as well as making it much more complicated to compare competing bids.

14th overall + Raddysh + 2nd in 2018 for Manson

I wouldn't do Raddysh, they can have any of Stephens, Cirelli, Joseph, Katchouk or Yan before I offer Raddysh. If we are targeting Manson might as well use Dotchin +, as he's a Manson lite.
