That's some captain material right there.
Wears a number to honor some guy he didn't even personally know, just because they were going to be future teammates.

^ Fuck, you could build a hell of a team from that list, must be nice to get to completely customize your entire lineup from scratch with all the investment in talent development having been taken care of for you.

Made me even sadder about the Canucks too........ every other team has a "WOW, that guy is available?!" player... but the Canucks... so thin on talent, I just went "Meh, whatever" about literally every guy on the list lol!

Didn't go thru the entire list. But at least 3 or maybe even 4 future hall of famers are on that list. Jagr, Thornton, Iginla and MAF

Same with Toronto. They lucked out big time considering all their best players are exempt from the expansion draft.

Man, this was a lot harder then I thought. Especially with the balancing of the salary cap. I didn't take into consideration any sort of trades teams would do to entice VGK from picking certain exposed players or any trades that other teams would make with VGK so that they can pick up an exposed player from them.

Went with Staal instead of Dumba because there is a distinct lack of good centers compared to defensemen. Also took a defenseman over a forward because every team is always looking for D, so it's easier to flip one of them for a prospect or pick (i.e. Methot over Ryan)

VGK have an exclusive UFA negotiating period right now with those UFAs before they hit actual UFA on July 1st.

10 days of negotiating rights really isn't worth much, though. Rights were generally equivalent to a 4th round pick before the 2013 CBA.

And, let's face it, a guy of Oshie's talent can pretty much go wherever he wants to; not sure an expansion team is at the top of his list unless they're willing to pay substantially more than everyone else (in which case, they don't need the rights, anyways).

a product of genius planning by JB or horrible roster assembly by JB?

srsly tho, great that most of our players are too young to be eligible (stecher, boeser, demko, dahlen, goldy, etc)

Nope. They will have one of the best prospect pools though. They have too many side deals and will want a top pick next year

Why would LV take Lehtonen and lose their first round pick when they can get Lehtonen for free?
