Forum: Expansion DraftJan. 12, 2021 at 11:31 p.m.
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div><a href="/users/OldNYIfan" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@OldNYIfan</a> nailed our projected protection list. It is interesting that Foligno was just extended this evening with no NMC. Wonder how that will affect expansion and/or if Guerin has a trade up his sleeves (please save us PLD)...

As for the expansion I'm afraid Seattle may not have the same success that Vegas did initially. Teams were panicking that their good players would be exposed and instead of just losing a good player they moved tons of picks/prospects to get Vegas to select guys that ended up becoming really good selections (and a lot of the guys they took with those picks in the entry drafts look great in hindsight). I hope I'm wrong, I have family in Seattle and have always loved visiting (and I know my family will be Kraken fans). Should be a great hockey town.</div></div>

TanSor,
I am so damn excited. Me and 3 buddies went in on 2 season tickets, and we have fantastic seats. So excited. I have tons of family in Vancouver, BC, and have been a hockey fan for pretty much my whole life. I have just not paid that much attention the last 4-5 years, so i am cramming in this shortened season to get acclimated again. I will be watching a TON of hockey from now until the expansion draft. I do agree with you, i think we will not get as many good players as Vegas got, but i hope they can flip guys for picks and just build up. I am ok being terrible for a few years haha. Checkout my second go at a draft, this one was garbage haha.
