JCon Posted December 30, 2016 Report Posted December 30, 2016 1 hour ago, Floyd said: No, it means neither have reached their 40/70 game requirement for the expansion draft. Vegas cannot pick them. No, teams can protect only so many players and must expose a minimum of two forward, one defenseman, and one goalie. Vegas can pick from anyone as long as they are not on the protected list, under 2 years, or LTIR. FrostyWinnipeg 1

Ducky Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Posted January 13, 2017 Does anyone know if the players we leave unprotected have to be a certain percentage of the team's salary? Do we have to leave x amount of dollars unprotected?

Floyd Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 Just watch the Jets leave Armia exposed...
Ducky Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Posted January 14, 2017 There is no way I protect MP over Armia....no way. bustamente 1
bustamente Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 At this point I would not protect Perreault, he can be replaced easily.
Ducky Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Posted January 14, 2017 4 more years after this one for 4.125, per year and we are paying Armia 925k and Lowry 1.125m...
Ducky Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Posted January 27, 2017 Lawless saying right now that he would protect Copp over Dano.
FrostyWinnipeg Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 7 minutes ago, Ducky said: Lawless saying right now that he would protect Copp over Dano. Is not the question would he protect Copp over Lowry? Dano not even in picture.
The Unknown Poster Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 Certainly based on talent now and upside Copp looks like a keeper. Dano might just be the type of player that would be sad to lose but maybe not quote good enough that Vegas takes him. They'd take Lowry over Dano. Probably Armia over Dano. I like Dano. But he's not irreplaceable. Copp is showing why they held him in such high regard. Props to Maurice for recognizing that he could slide into a top six role and look good. When we're healthy, who gets shuffled out? Copp down to 3rd line? Copp-Lowry-Armia? Good third line. Lawless also said Perreault probably being shopped. Thats tough. He's been a great addition but hasnt embraced the top six role like it seemed he might. New contract kicking in...do they protect him because he has value or let Vegas take him for nothing and be glad to save the contract money?
Ducky Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Posted January 27, 2017 He was saying they go 7-3-1 and leave Myers unprotected and do a deal with Vegas not to take Myers.

That would be my preference. Even if Myers becomes the odd man out, his value is too low right now. Get him back, contributing and healthy, and you can move him for a lot more value. I would still prefer to keep Myers but I don't see any room for him now. This, of course, assumes Trouba is prepared to negotiate a long-term contract with the Jets (and vice-versa).
Ducky Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Posted January 27, 2017 7-3-1 is definitely the way to go. Leave MP unprotected and expose him and Matthias. Scheif, Wheeler, Little, Armia, Copp, Dano and Lowry protected. Vegas takes their pick of him, Matthias, Hutch, or Stu. Myers should have been traded over a year ago. He is the third best RHD on the team costing 5.5 in salary cap and 7.5m over the last two years of actual salary. It doesn't matter who is left unprotected if you have a deal with Vegas but if you don't and we have all 4 of them on the day the list needs to handed in, I am protecting Myers.

So, you would have traded Myers a year ago, before Trouba was even signed? When the (legitimate) plan was to move Trouba to the left?

Ask Toby to waive his NMC. @ 5m/yr he's even less attractable them MP. 50 minutes ago, Goalie said: Isn't Copp an RFA? Why protect him. He's RFA but he would be Vegas's RFA.

Goalie Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Copp is a good bottom 6 player. He's not a guy I'd be protecting tho. If Vegas takes him... oh well. If not... that's fine but I feel people are basing this on his last couple games. He's a good player but he's not a top 6 player. So.. I'd leave him exposed. I mean Cmon.... how many bottom 6 players you wanna protect? Isn't Lowry and Armia enough? I'd protect Dano over Copp. Edited January 28, 2017 by Goalie
Floyd Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Leave Myers and Perrault exposed... Vegas can have either one of them Goalie and bustamente 2

Vegas can have either one of them Don't know is either of these guys will ever play a full season, don't really know Myers problem this year could still be his hip and injuries just seem to follow Perreault, didn't really like his extension either.
Ducky Posted January 28, 2017 Author Report Posted January 28, 2017 Myers has been chronically hurt since after his 2nd season.

The Unknown Poster Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Keep in mind it has been said the bigger issue facing Myers is a "personal" thing not injury. Don't give up on his yet. A top four D with a great contract. Vegas takes him and laughs while doing so.
