Seattle team 2020

Lets just hope they don't hire you to manage the cap

Sabres fan here

I don’t see how they get Sheary
He’s a free agent after the ‘19-‘20 season,
so we’d have to re-sign him for him to be the player they’d get from us
Would be pretty strange to sign him just to turn around and not protect him & give him up
If we don’t sign him, they could get him as a UFA and that would count
But i don’t think Vegas did that with anyone, did they?
Makes more sense for them to get an actual asset from us

Okposo may be a guy we’d leave unprotected bc of his contract
Or someone like Berglund
Other than that...
it would probably be one of the many young players we have ready to play in the NHL over the next couple years
We won’t be able to protect them all

Hyman Isn't getting unprotected

Dumo and Ekholm aren’t unprotected. How do you get Yamamoto?? Dadonov, Hjalmarsson, Seabrook, and Kesler have to be protected. Shabby work.

I can't see the Devils letting go of Severson. He is on a great contract and has been good in his role. I think a guy like Mueller or Santini will be the guy Seattle takes.
