Oh ok, thanks. I haven't really...looked at the rules yet.Only 20 of the 30 drafted players have to be under contract for the 2017-18 season.
Kruger + calvert pk would be unscorable
Kruger was on the 24th ranked PK last season...
You heard that here though. Bieksa being injured was something a poster here on hfboards originally came up with. You'll find no insider supporting that, Bieksa was cleared to play in the WCF and Ducks beat writer reported him as a buyout candidate last week if he was unwilling to waive his NMC (which it seems fairly likely he would have since Murray had the conversation with him last summer).I heard Bieksa's injury prevented the buyout
What do you expect MB/Radulov to say?
"Well, we already have a deal worked out and we are just waiting to sign it in order to circumvent the draft."
Not saying it is guaranteed he will come back, but I would take the current negotiation troubles with a grain of salt.
Agreed .. they have to ice a team .. unless the Ducks are giving up a good package of picks and prospects to leave those guys there.
The NHL puts things in their favor.. good players exposed so they can be competitive and they tank out of the gate

oh sweet baby jesus please take Moulson off the Sabres hands.
I think Ullmark is the obvious pick.
Probably not, there are many better goalies available.
How long is he waiver exempt for?
Probably not, there are many better goalies available.
Not ones who are waiver exempt. The rest of the options in Buffalo aren't worth taking.
I guess, you guys act as if finding a minor league goalie is somehow difficult.
Radulov is most likely re-signing with th Habs. If it was about cashing in, he wouldn't have signed with Montreal in the fist place since there were better offers elsewhere last year.
Unless Bergevin really lowballs him, he'll stay in Montreal.
The Flyers protected their waiver exempt, expansion draft eligible goalie prospect because they knew he'd be attractive to Vegas.
What were the better offers?
I think Ullmark is the obvious pick.
So here is a conspiracy theory for you drummed up by yours truly.
It seemed odd that the VGK were willing to take on Krugers salary to get TVR. Not many of us saw TVR as that valuable of an asset but Mcphee seems to see otherwise. Now obviously Kruger is a good player and his contract really isnt that bad for Vegas.
However incoming conspiracy theory. Maybe as a marketing ploy, Mcphee has a deal also in place with Toronto to get JVR and re-unite the brothers. Maybe a sign and trade as of July 1, since that is when JVR can sign a new extension?
JVR may actually be a valuable player for Vegas in their draft/develop phase.
Anyways carry on....

Or Carrier. One or the other. Protecting Ennis over Carrier suggests the Sabres would rather lose Carrier than Ullmark, but I think McPhee chooses one of the two. The rest of his picks/roster will likely decide it.
Ok sounds good.
