it was fun while it lasted Sens

 

In comparison to my regular B's jerseys, the difference is negligible, but they may feel a bit smaller

 

Adidas owns Reebok, don't forget...so I am sure the actual makeup of the jerseys won't be that different

 

Good move. Hopefully with Campbell and Oduya gone he can get some consistent ice time. If he we can get him or Forsling to play the right side that would be even better.

 

I had a feeling it would be the leafs or another Canadian team, stupid

 

Pot kettle etc etc

 

LETS FREAKING GO

 

Oh wow

 

whats everyone guess as to their teams protected list? I honestly think the Devils might go 4-4-1. They don't currently have 7 forwards worth protecting. My fear is that Shero protects Ben Lovejoy since he is "his guy"

F- Taylor Hall
F- Travis Zajac
F- Kyle Palmieri
F- Adam Henrique

D- Andy Greene
D- Damon Severson
D- Jon Merill
D- John Moore

G- Cory Schneider

 

Assuming I understand how this works;

Blues:

Tarasenko
Schwartz
Stastny
Steen
Sobotka
Berglund (have to)
Reaves

Pietrangelo
Bouwmeester (have to)
Edmundson

Allen

Parayko (and I believe Fabbri) are exempt from the draft. If Fabbri has to be protected, obviously he's kept. Really hoping they take Lehtera. If they don't, hopefully we just buy him out.

 

Parayko and Fabbri are both exempt. Here is a good site for reference:

Expansion Draft Tool - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

 

awesome, thanks!

 

Bruins:

Bergeron (NMC)
Marchand (NMC)
Krejci (NMC)
Backes (NMC)
Pastrnak
Riley Nash
Spooner

Chara (NMC)
Krug
Colin Miller (I'm happily eating crow about Kevan, but the fact that a 30 year old with one good season is going to be protected is asinine)

Rask (NMC)

 

Canes:

Staal (NMC)
Skinner
Rask
Lindholm
TT
McGinn or Di Giuseppe

Faulk
Dahlbeck

Darling

Slim pickings for LV

 

In the event that doesn't happen, Hawks is pretty simple:

Toews (NMC)
Kane (NMC)
Anisimov (NMC)
Hossa (NMC)
Hartman (b/c no way)
Panik (not happenin')
Kruger ? (i mean i think they need to expose him but they have no other eligible forward -Panarin isn't eligible - to save)

Keith (NMC)
Seabrook (NMC)
Hjammer (NMC)

Crawford (NMC)

 

Ducks are in tough spot thanks to Bieksa

Getzlaf (NMC)
Perry(NMC)
Kesler (NMC)
Rakell
Silfverberg
Cogliano
7th player (this format prevents losing 33 and 7, but any other applicable forward can fill this spot)

Bieksa (NMC)
Fowler
Lindholm

Gibson

Vatanen'a injury complicates things because I'd say he'd be the expendable one from the Dcorp before it was revealed. I don't want to lose Manson either and the 8/1 format will see Silfverberg being taken easily. I just want this to end already

 

For the Leafs:

F-
Kadri
Bozak
van Riemsdyk
Brown
Komarov
Martin (unfortunately)
Rychel/Leipsic

D-
Rielly
Gardiner
Carrick

G-
Andersen

Likely Rychel or Leipsic is who gets taken, unless McPhee is extra stupid and takes Marincin. We're in fairly good shape in any case.

 

Can't the Leafs avoid protecting Martin? I doubt LV takes his contract.

 

He doesn't need to be protected, but I just think he will because grit and stuff.

 

I'm not going to do a protected list because they'll probably take schlemko or dillon
