Description
Seattle Expansion Protection List:
FW (7): Gallagher, KK, Anderson, Toffoli, Drouin, Danault
D (3): all with NTC so Chiarot, Edmundson and Petry
G (1): Allen

I would throw a draft pick for Seattle to pick Weber. Weber can still be serviceable despite his age and could make a good captain in Seattle for a new team.

As for the Price trade, it makes sense for both teams: Colorado gets a number 1 goalie that has been on a struggling team for a few years and they get rid of Johnson who lost his spot in the lineup with youngsters Byram, Girard, Makar, Toews and potentially Timmins.

By offloading Weber and Price, MTL can focus on building with the core and prospects without worrying of salary constraints for the next few years.

Meanwhile, Poehling continues to develop as a full-line center in the AHL with the emergence of our prospects Ylonen, Teadale, Brook, HP and Mysak playing more significant roles.

    Why would Vancouver give away a player they like (Motte ) for a player with a bad salary (Byron) that they could have had a couple of times for free when he was on waivers?
