Can’t see a reason they would move him, he’s pretty great for them

Don’t see Ellis getting moved.

Thry protect Ellis, Josi, Ekholm. Fabbro is exempt.

Our defense is too thin as it is. The only real problem with Ellis is that he shouldn't be paired with Josi. As a 21-22 minute #3 D with a physical stay-at-home LD partner, Ellis would be great. Well, short term anyway. Somewhere along the line that contract will become awful. But for now it's fine.

If I traded Ellis I want a solid, physical, bigger top-4 D-man. Just a stylistic change basically. But we can't trade him just for forwards or futures. Not unless we have another way to get some D.

Probably not getting moved.

He’s an integral piece to the Preds, he’s a big reason why they’re currently going to OT right now.

I don't think that's right since Fabbro played in the playoffs last season. Think he also needs to be protected.

Yeah, they are going to protect all 4 including Fabbro who is not exempt.

I don't think Fabbro was really ready to be a top-4 player, not on a contending team anyway, but he's too young and has too much potential to just gift-wrap to Seattle.

Maybe, but he did more than fine for essentially a rookie, definitely not one of the top 5, or probably even 10, issues for the squad this season. There is zero reason he should be left unprotected.
