I would imagine the draw will be going to las vegas to see your team beat up on the slow kids.

It will probably be cheaper to fly to las vegas, spend 3 days in a hotel, and get front row seats to oilers @ vegas than to get front row seats to the oilers at home.

Also, Habs don't need a mandatory protection rule to protect Carey Price. The only logic they should need to protect Carey is LOOK AT LAST YEAR YOU IDIOTS

So the Vegas team is going to take 30 contracts and then waive a bunch of dudes? I'd imagine they sign a free agent or 3 so what is going to happen to all those guys.

True but they're young. They'll get better. It's more "good" than last or many recent years past anyway.

Desert Knights would be a lot better anyhow, they should take this chance at a mulligan.

Plus they get to sell more shirts to people who already bought Golden Knights! It's a win/win.
