Thread: A question for Toronto fans
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gronk</b></div><div>But Lundqvist needs to be protected. Expansion Draft happens before July 1st so he is still under contract...</div></div>

Something tells me even if he was eligible, the Rangers would be more than happy for Seattle to take him and his 8.5 mil AAV off their hands

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>I think technically, Andersen will be a pending UFA so he won't be eligible for the draft. While its probably a tad underhanded, they could have a handshake deal of a contract that he could sign immediately after the expansion draft and then they can just not protect him.</div></div>

Hmm, good point. I could see that working out and that would be a very shrewd move

Thread: Red Wings
I'm trying to figure out the end game of all these trades...

Nobody wants a washed up Trevor Daley, especially Tampa who has plenty of spare D men who are cheaper. Plus Condon is buried and on an expiring deal so if Tampa wanted to move him, it would be for a salary dump, not to take more on.

Vegas deal doesn't work due to cap space for Vegas and why would Vegas give up a 2nd for trading away two expiring deals that are less expensive than what we're giving them for no real gain?

Jimmy's #'s have been horrible this year, he's not cheap, and that move would put SJ 600k higher on the cap. So I don't see where they gain here.

Van and Buf trades are what they are. I guess they're fine, but I don'e see why either one says yes.

AA for Georgiev has been proposed elsewhere and is interesting. I'd be very curious to see who would win that trade down the road

Thread: Idea For A Fire Sale
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>with the preds currently out of the playoffs, they aren't making that trade - and they just resigned Watson to a 3 year extension. Not a great look for Poile and the preds if they trade him only a months later.</div></div>

That was my gut feeling, especially at the amount he signed for. Preds are further down the standings that I thought but the west is so top heavy I could still see them getting one of the wild card spots. Chi, LA, and ANA are trash. Sharks recent streak seems like a mirage, and Minnesota will **** the bed like they always do. If Rinne gets his **** back together, I think they'd be fine.

Edit: With the Jets so depleted on D, I wonder if they'd be interested in Green's services for like a 3rd with a pick going back
