Hearing the Kraken are selecting Jordan Eberle from the New York Islanders.

Frank Seravalli: Hearing the Kraken will select Carsen Twarynski from the Philadelphia Flyers.

Not official yet, but heard they picked soucy from minny and lauzon from Boston. They must have trades pending.

RF doing no favours picking up cap problems from teams. Luv it.

So imo teams wouldn’t bend so RF will squeeze them post draft or simply go after key RFA’s with a weaponized cap.

Francis focusing heavily on defensive defenseman and defensive minded forwards.

If they want to pick up Ryan Johansen for 8 mil for the next 4 years and add his 8 goals a year and acquire a first and a second round pick then who are we to stop them?

Yes he is. They will be tough to play against for sure

Also being reported they have signed 3 more UFAs. Yet to be announced.

Seattle hasn’t acquired multiple extra draft picks like Vegas did so it’ll be interesting to see if he can get some with his cap space.

He might have gotten 1 for taking Eberle.

Cap friendly just posted this...

Based on the reports, this is what we expect the #SeaKraken  initial roster to look like

The team will have significant cap space out of the gate to take advantage of.

Missing: CHI, DET, NYR

Of the selections, 6 players are currently pending RFAs and 4 are UFAs

Don’t have to believe me


But there’s word that Tyler Bertuzzi is done in Detroit, got it into it with Yzerman when they discussed exposing him for a side deal with Seattle.

Before the proposals start, he apparently doesn’t want to play in a Canadian market but obviously he doesn’t have control without any NTC

Yzerman might try to do damage control to repair the relationship so we’ll see.

When does FA open Monday?

If they make a deal for a team with a bad contract but decent player and collect a 1st and second or 2 1sts or something and say Ekman Larson.

Flip the picks to Buffalo for Eichel
Sign Landescog and Schwartz

Eichel Landy Schwartz Larson plus the team they have that is rock solid

Sounds like the Kraken went really off board with their pick from the Blackhawks. Don’t have the specific name yet, but told it’s not someone you’d expect.

Hearing it’s John Quenneville.
