What are they going to do about the expansion draft?

They'll get EJ to waive somehow, or they'll pay up to Seattle for them to take Donskoi or Graves.

I really like how the team is built so far. If the group isn’t getting it done up front, there’s no commitment to Saad or Burakovsky past two years from now. Promising prospects still making their way into the lineup and their ELCs will help when Mac/Makar are due for raises. There’s lots to like about this team for sure

I can't imagine Johnson is going to waive, especially with Colorado on the upswing.

Curious to see what it will take for Seattle to pass on taking one of Toews or Girard. I imagine it will have to be quite a bit.

It'll be interesting, but the man loves the organization. And the odds Seattle takes an aging dman making $6 mil a year are pretty low... Would you really rather take EJ over Graves if he's available?
