Hamonic should be protected (or traded prior to expansion). Strome should be protected as well. Would rather lose (or trade) De Haan straight up than give up those amount of picks.
What about the obvious one Pittsburgh trades 2017 1st rnd pick to not draft Matt Murray
haha there is zero chance (if i'm Vegas) I'd take that deal. Give me the #30 pick and i won't take a #1 goalie. Pass. If they don't get Fleury to waive then I'd draft Murray unless I'm getting Sheary/Guentzel/pick from them not to take him

If MAF has a NMC the Pens will have no choice but to protect him, leaving Murray exposed
they will have him waive or he'll be bought out, not that hard.
I think Jarry is exempt so Pittsburgh would have to sign a veteran goalie for the exposure purpose. Like you said, piece of cake. BTW, Fleury' s cap hit going forward would be about $1.9M/4 years in this scenario.
