Salary Cap: Salary Cap Thread: Expansion Draft Extravaganza

It's going to be funny when Seattle takes Kerfoot over McCann and McCann absolutely flops in a defensive 3C role for Toronto.

I think the issue with McCann is that he has to be a scoring line center, but no contending teams have Jared McCann as a top-6 center unless the rest of the roster is stacked. You either need to have a scoring line 3rd line or you need to have a stacked team outside of your centers (like Vegas now and Chicago in the past) for McCann at C on a good team to work.

Most of the fan base hasn’t been alive long enough to remember a time when we didn’t have a generational player on the roster.

I was 7 when the Pens drafted Lemieux.

Seattle choosing between ZAR and Tanev is like deciding whether you want to eat a communion wafer or a tab of acid.

I don’t expect Tanev to be a Penguin by day’s end.

I would be shocked if Tanev is selected by Seattle. Just doesn't make sense from any perspective. He's an ultra expensive player in a position of extreme depth in the expansion draft.

I would be really surprised if it wasn't one of ZAR, Pettersson or Zucker. Tanev's like the 4th or 5th most likely guy IMO.
