They only had one more year to sign him and they probably weren't interested in doing so now that they have Carter Hart and Felix Sandstrom in the system that are considered much better prospects

Cousins had a good end of 2016, didn't really do much this last season. I'm more surprised because I would have been betting on the Knights taking Weal, Raffle (if Raffle isn't protected) or Read over Cousins.

Or am I overrating Cousins?

Yes. With either Nico/Nolan being drafted and Lindblom coming over from Sweden, it was doubtful he would have made the team out of camp anyway

The Oilers home jersey may have been leaked



Like one important detail that was brought up in the blog post is that the teaser showed the collar as blue, and this collar is white, so it may only be a prototype. Which I hope it is, because that jersey looks worse than what they were wearing before.

This is the strangest thing about this deal.

I don't think a mediocre replacable third-liner is worth protecting.

As for the deal, the Flyers opened up a roster spot next season and got a pick out of it. I like it.

sounds like the blue jackets have agreed to a deal with vegas, their first rounder (#24) this year + a prospect and in exchange Vegas will draft one of Matt Calvert, Ryan Murray, or William Karlsson. David Clarkson might also go back the other way

It's not surprising there have been almost no trades, and not just because timidity is apparently a job requirement to be an NHL GM. It's been a year since the expansion draft rules were known. Almost everyone made their arrangements with Vegas long ago, and almost every GM likely knows exactly what Vegas' roster is going to be.

Columbus is in a unique position in that most anybody they lose is decent-to-good in some role. Calvert and Karlsson are both 3rd/4th liners who make up the top PK unit; Calvert is good for 10+ goals a year usually despite where he plays and is probably the grittiest player on the team (if Hartnell goes away). Karlsson is defensively strong. The only reason I would want Murray kept is trade bait, because JMFJ-Savard was a solid pair last season.

If Vegas were to take Lukas Sedlak, they've dodged a massive bullet, but it doesn't look like he's part of the condition. No matter what happens, Clarkson's cap space being Vegas' problem allows Wennberg and Anderson to be re-signed.

Aye Doc posted:

William Karlsson, Joonas Korpisalo, or Josh Anderson

Word is it's Wennberg, not Karlsson, they're protecting, which is interesting because the two have been friends since Juniors and makes me wonder who their protected forwards are. My armchair list was Saad, Foligno, Dubinsky, Hartnell, Atkinson, Jenner, Wennberg.

So Vegas is going to take all the good unprotected goalies and try to shop them to teams that need one and end up like Dallas with half of their cap going to backup goalies.
