Description

This is simulating the Anaheim Ducks team after the Las Vegas expansion draft. I will be bringing some prospects up, but note that these are projections, as some might not improve as much as expected. Based on the NHL's 7-3-1 rule, and the fact that NTC's and NMC's can't be entered into the expansion draft, these are the following players that I think the Ducks should save.

Forwards:
Getzlaf (NMC)
Perry (NMC)
Kesler (NMC)
Cogliano (NTC)
Vermette (NTC)
Silfverberg
Rakell

Defensemen:
Bieksa (NMC)
Lindholm
Vatanen

Goalie:
Gibson

Any thoughts on how to revamp the wings?

Free Agency. Should've done Lindholm for Kreider when they had the chance.

Rangers laugh at the Ducks in the deal. I think you mispelled Vatanen or Montour in that Hayes deal

I'm sorry but not one of those moves makes any sense.
They'd never let Fowler go for nothing
They could've signed McGinn as a FA and not lost a defenseman for him, why trade Despres for him now?
Stoner has damn near negative value because of his contract, not a chance you get Hayes

Bieska won't be drafted by the Vegans, so I imagine he will waive his NMC for expansion purposes. Oh, and the trades aren't good either.
