Right, so since Zucker has a clause doesn't he have to be protected?
- Rinosaur

Official rules say only guys with No Movement Clauses are automatically added to the list of protected players. Zucker has a limited NTC where he selects 10 teams he cannot be traded to. So I'm guessing his NTC doesnt protect him from the expansion list.

As others have said, I think if you get a deal for him, you make it. Take the futures and loss someone else rather than loss him for nothing.

Tanev and Carter too. Pens are going to lose a good player. I'm starting to believe they might be better served with the cap space over Zucker.

You protect McCann and Blueger. Let SEA take Zucker, Tanev, or Carter.

He has an M-NTC. I thought it was any kind of trade clause.

Nah just NMC.

Jank is just so bad

Regarding the expansion draft....What is the criteria for what position players play?

Like could you expose Matheson as a forward? Would he need a certain amount of games played as a forward?

I'd imagine there are requirements for who is a forward versus defenseman.

Not sure what it matters though. He will be exposed as a forward or defenseman.

It would have to at the very least be their primary position but in Matheson's case it is irrelevant. He's getting exposed.

Also in regards to the expansion draft I think there's way too much focus on it.

PIT protected 9 players in the VGK expansion. 4 are still with the team.

DET protected 11 players. 2 (3 if you count Zetterberg) are still with the team.

They need to start calling delay of game penalty’s when the puck carrier clamps on a players stick. Bullpoop power play goal.

Agreed. I do like all of these players, but the cap space gained by losing any of these three makes the loss of any of them an easy pill to swallow

Someone give me the low down. Had to entertain the girlfriend's parents with some ribs today. Why the hell was the score 3-2 and not 10-0? Buffalo is supposed to suck.

Penguins' first period was probably among their best during the year. Only got one goal when they probably should've had 3 or 4. Buffalo's goaltending was very solid today.

2nd and 3rd periods were okay, a little too loose defensively at points. Buffalo had some good chances. Rodrigues continues to play well with his goal today.

Overall, it's a win. Penguins now in 2nd place. I'd rather it stay Penguins-Islanders. I think that is our best matchup.

I think Rodrigues has looked pretty good in his role the last few weeks.

Third period was just bad for the Pens, but they muscled it out.

Those look damn good!

They were pretty awesome. I did them
3 different ways in the new camp chef pellet smoker I got. They were all so good it was hard to pick a favorite.
