Thread: What I would do
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>Or Seattle could just take Foote and Bean and not burden themselves with bad cap they don't want with no return.
This would look like Bean and a 1st or Foote and a 1st.

Because if I'm Seattle, I'm taking both Foote and Bean. Period. That's two solid young defensemen on rookie contracts for nothing, and you can spend cap in other places in the expansion draft like forward, to get guys you like or think can build your team up nicely.

0 reason here for them to make those deals at all.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>Foote and Bean are both straight up exposed, why would Seattle not just take them without burdening themselves with those other cap hits?</div></div>

Because maybe they are exposed to Seattle because there's already a deal done. Depending on which player are protected by some teams, Seattle need to pick 14F 9D 3G. So CAR exposed Niederreiter and Bean give Seattle the choice of picking Bean if they need to pick a D or Niederreiter if they are already at 10D picked. I can see this happen because if not maybe tampa would have better like to get a 2nd or 3rd round pick for Foote than nothing. Same for CAR and Bean.
