Dumbest thing, Vegas should take part in this as well... They are part of the NHL... Are they not?Knights:
Protected list: Everybody
Exposed list: Nobody
Maybe moving on from the Anti-Leaf board?2 pages deep and no leaf fans , Check out your fan friends tonight something wrong
or they just take bellows. why help the isles out by taking a bad contract unless they get paid to do so?

one of the best teams in the league wont lose a single player. not exactly fair
Doesn't every team have to expose a goaltender ?Matthews
Marner
Tavares
Nylander
Rielly
Brodie
Muzzin
Dermott
Campbell
Kerfoot is the only notable forward exposed if he is still a leaf. Holl on D. Andersen and Hyman are both UFA
The NHL expected them to be a lot worse, because in the past expansion teams had a long period of suckDumbest thing, Vegas should take part in this as well... They are part of the NHL... Are they not?

what even is this list....? Protecting McLeod AND Kuokkanen over Bratt? what the hell?
why are we protecting Josh freaking Jacobs?
Automatically protected due to NMC:
Toews
Kane
Keith
Seabrook
Also protected (my guess):
Debrincat
Strome
Nylander
Zadorov
Delia
So 8FD/1G
Exempt:
Dach
Boqvist
Kubalik
and the rest of the prospects like Mitchell, Kurashev, Beaudin, etc.
You think they protect Nylander over Murphy? Should just go 7-3-1 if you're only protecting 3D.
May be wrong but seems like Bratt isn't anything more than he was as a rookie - possibly because he was up too soon. If last year's Binghamton season was an indication think those two (as well as Jacobs) will play far more prominent roles.
And with regards to Bratt, with players like Holtz, Mercer, Hughes, as well as Bastian and possibly Boqvist, don't really see where he fits.
In fact, doubt if he was exposed the Kracken would even take him.
As for Jacobs, I made that post before I saw the Kulikov signing. If Jacobs isn't in the NHL this year no need to protect him.
Blues 7-3-1
I think obviously somewhat depends on how players progress this year but here's what I have so far.
F: ROR, Schenn, Tarasenko, Thomas, Sundqvist, Kyrou, Sanford
D: Parayko, Krug, Dunn
G: Binnington
UFA: Schwartz, Bozak, Steen, Gunnarsson
Exposed: Faulk, Perron, Barbashev, Blais, Scandella, Bortuzzo, Mikkola
Exempt: Perunovich, Kostin, Alexandrov, Neighbors
I feel like Barbashev ends up the selection here. Maybe Army will send a package for them to select Faulk though.
Maybe they should just like everyone else. its not the end of the world anyways. just feel Vegas should have to submit a protection list as well. everyone else will possibly be hurt a little by this and vegas just stays the same or gets better.They also don't receive any share of the expansion fee that Seattle is paying.
Doesn't every team have to expose a goaltender ?
Andersen is exposed. Yes he is a free agent but will technically still be under contract to the leafs when the expansion draft takes place. The draft happens before free agency starts.
with all due respect, you really have not been paying attention then. Bratt would definitely be taken by Seattle if he were to be exposed. Not sure what Hughes has to do with Bratt as he is a center. Bastian has not even cracked the NHL yet and he will be a 4th liner if anything. Boqvist is only a few months younger than Bratt and again, he has not cracked the NHL as a full timer yet.
I am pretty confident in saying that Josh Jacobs and Mike McLeod will never be regular NHL players
Not sure what you mean, are you asking me if you are allowed to be a Seattle fan based on your geographic location?
Hawks don't have two other forwards worth protecting lol.
You value Jesper far more than me. He seems like a one-trick pony - some offensive ability but either unwilling or unable to play a complete game. The reason Hughes was included in that list is because he is (potentially) a top line forward and his skill set suggests he has far more potential then Bratt (though clearly he would have been far better served in either the OHL or the NCAA this past season - his brother Quinn played TWO seasons in college before breaking into the NHL).
With the many options the Devils will have for scorers in the future, Bratt doesn't seem to fit.
And unlike Wood, McLeod or Bastian has neither the size, willingness nor tactical game to play a two-way role. Maybe with a new coaching staff he develops those aspects but that seems like a stretch.
Oshie will be exposed and the Caps better hope Seattle takes him...we’ll need to extra cap room to pay for raises for Ovi, Vrana and SamsonsovExposing Oshie? That seems ridiculous. His play is not declining and if he scores another 25, no thanks. He's a fan favorite here as well. You keep him. Expose Hagelin/Panik/Hathaway
