Also, exempt parameters are as follows.

Exempt list can be 7F, 3D, 1G or 8 Skaters, 1G

First and Second year pros as well as prospects are exempt. Pros, by definition, is anyone being paid to play.

This is a pretty solid opportunity to offer up Moulson as our best non-exempt player. You wouldn't have to add Sam and Jack to that list.

Thanks Taco.

(as i'm eating a couple hard shell tacos)

I didn't make it out of pre algebra enough with all the numbers already, can it work for us or not

It depends on what they do with Ennis and Girgs. They also need to re-sign Foligno, Larsson and Deslauriers. If they move Ennis, yes I think it could work.

Free agent TE Jim Dray is visiting the Bills on Wednesday.
Dray, 29, was released by the Browns last month in a salary-cap move. He's purely a blocking tight end after catching 23 passes in two years with Cleveland.


and we need this bum for what reason ? we have no money and we are looking at this scrub

Agreed on Moulson and I would also think they could offer up Franson.

If you trade the scrubs and move Ennis it could easily work. If there is an expansion draft, you could lose Moulson and Franson and have additional dollars to play with.

According to Friedman, you can't have players with NTC in the expansion draft......as of now.

That cannot be true. Otherwise you protect your entire team. So many guys have NTCs nowadays you protect 7F plus 1st and 2nd year players are safe and guys with NTC which is the old timers. So you have the young kids protected, your "prime" guys, protected and even the over the hill guys you want gone protected? That does not make sense. Its a NTC not a NDC

whaley has so over paid bills that have under performed

I don't see them turning the corner for the next few years, and will probably play golf every sunday this fall instead of being glued to another loss

So if for instance Vegas comes in next year. I could see the list be something like this.

Ennis O'Riley Kane Foligno Girgensons Larsson Deslauries

Risto

McCabe Eichel Pysyk Reinhart would all be exempt because they haven't played two full seasons

Gorges Moulson Gionta Bogosian would all be excempt because of no trade clauses. Wonder who vegas would take...? Cal O'Riley? Matt Donovan?

not sure on that one, does missed time to injury count as playing?

I doubt that's the case.. Otherwise Bettman would never pass it. I bet unfortunately they players with no trade clauses have to count against the 7. Leaving us with

O'Riley Kane Gionta Moulson Girgensons Foligno Larsson

Leaving Deslauries

Ristolainen Gorges Bogosian

Lehner

Doesnt matter you can hold 3D So add him to exempt. Does not make sense with the NTC thing. That 100% cannot be true. Otherwise why not give the expansion team there pick of AHLers that are over 25 cause thats all they are getting. Kaleta and McCormick to Vegas! Isn't Kotalik still around somewhere?
