Description

8 FW/D and 1 goalie. I believe is better than 7 FW / 3 D / 1 G.

I think the Leafs would wanna keep their top 4 Dman (Dermott or Holl) more so than protect Kerfoot, Hyman and J. Anderson.

If the Leafs get Hyman, F. Andersen, Vesey or Simmonds resigned before the Draft that'll really confuse the matter even more.

The Leafs to play at least one or two of Engvall, Malgin, Brooks, J. Anderson or Petan in enough games this season to be able to qualify for the Expansion selection.

Sorry but I see Kerfoot and Dermott being exposed...I would guess Dubas either trades Kerfoot to another team or makes a "future consideration" trade with Seattle to keep them away from selecting him or J. Anderson. Maybe the Leafs offer a player off their exempt list to bribe the Kraken to take Engvall, Brooks or Malgin.

Scratch players = Expansion exposured players.
IR players = Expansion exempt players.
LTIR players = UFA players who Seattle have no use to take.

Looks about right. A sign to look for in the season is Hyman re-signing for next season. If that happens I think the plan will have changed to 7-3-1.

I think Hyman is a team player who is loyal enough to bypass his contract extension until after the Seattle Draft happens. He wants to stay and I think will play the dirty game like that....or Hyman goes public saying the Leafs are #1 on his UFA list, that'll scare the Kraken away.

Fans always like to see what they want to happen as what is likely/what will happen. Especially around expansion drafts with waiving of NMCs, UFAs not signing new deals, etc but hockey is still a job for these guys and they still want to have a contract.

It's hard for the Leafs concerning forwards, by Expansion rules the Leafs need to expose 2 experienced NHL forwards (Kerfoot and Engvall ?)who are under contract. Holl (or Dermott, depending on how he plays this coming season) would be the 1 required NHL Dman under contract and Hutch is the 1 NHL goalie required for exposure. Either way I see the Leafs making a "bribe" trade with R. Francis.

I think that the determining factor will be whether Anderson plays himself back into significance. Then I can see the Leafs protecting Kerfoot and re-signing Hyman early. Otherwise, I think that you and @Byrr are right on all counts.
