Buffalo's decisions of note: Ennis is protected, which is bad Carrier is exposed, which is bad (though he almost certainly won't get picked) Nathan Beaulieu is protected, which is good Zack Bogosian is exposed, which is good Ullmark is exposed, which is expected. paging that guy that said i was stupid to want to leave bogosian exposed

JawKnee posted:that's a good move for Vegas if the Isles are as terrible next season as they were this one - which is a good bet probably The Isles were actually pretty good once they fired Capuano. The problem is they waited til halfway through the season and the damage was done.

Remember when the Leafs signed Ben Smith again and people where talking like it was 4D chess to game the veteran exposure requirements and the Leafs were gonna make some moves. Nah it's literally just so they could protect Matt Martin

This just proves that the tampa bay lightning hockey club has too much talent for an expansion draft and not enough for a cup. Cool sitch there.

I love seeing blasts from the past on the exposed lists. Apparently the Sens still control the rights for Nikita Filatov and Stephane da Costa

Leafs protecting Leivo after literally scratching him all year is interesting, especially with exposing Leipsic. Personally I don't think Leivo has a lot of room to grow and I was super high on Leipsic watching the Marlies, but he seems to have fallen out of favour with the whole org for some reason. Rychel pretty much sucks though.

Mostly okay with the list, aside from protecting Shaw.

As a general rule, if you have to justify someone's decision making as so clever that literally everyone else can't see how clever it is, it's more than likely not very clever.

JawKnee posted:Wonder if vegas goes for Ullmark from the Sabres. He's supposed to be pretty promising, right? Yeah, he's probably the 2nd most-likely person to be chosen in my opinion. I think Vegas ultimately chooses Moulson due to the extremely close family relationship with McPhee (Matt Moulson's son is literally named George after George McPhee, who also happens to be the godfather of his son as well) and the fact that he's an extremely good locker room guy and potential captain. He'll probably continue to pot about 20 goals per year for the next couple years as well. fwiw, my top four most likely candidates to be chosen are 1) moulson, 2) ullmark, 3) bogosian, 4) carrier

So what's the story with Bobby Ryan? He's not protected, he has a NMC and there was nothing about him waiving.

I mean there is only like 4 good players on the Wings. I don't think there was any real chance that Howard would have been selected by Vegas anyway and Mrazek has been a mixed bag at best. You're right in the fact that Detroit media will say he's playing 3D chess or maybe even prep for some Mrazek is a headcase rumors if they haven't already started. Long story short Wings suck, as long they protected Mantha and AA and get something for Green that's a step in the right direction. Teams boned as long as Holland is making the choices so idk hope the new arena is nice and pray something good comes from GR.

Detroit's defense is wretched.

Not waiving and protecting Marchenko, even if it was just to trade him when he clearly had enough value for a team to actually claim him on waivers, which never happens because NHL GMs are colluding wimps, might indicate that Ken Holland might have an outside infinitesimal chance at not burying this team in the dirt for the next decade. We're pretty clearly staring down the barrel of a 5y/20m contract for Nick loving Jensen in 2019 and that is so goddamn defeating. The fact that there was "no one better to protect" is immaterial
