Expansion draft

[babs44]

Who needs to be protected ? Helly Sheif Laine Ehlers Wheeler Connor Lowry ? Copp ? Little ? Morrisey Poink. Rosie and Perrault need to be moved before the draft but then the new player/players probably would need to be protected unless they are real young. Stock pile some picks perhaps ? Of course D is priority.

So explain the process to me with regard to Roslovic, Little and Perreault. If we don't value their services for whatever reason, leaving them unprotected may in fact be of benefit to us, if they are chosen by the Kraken. Correct, or waaaay too simple a view of what is involved?

If little isnt expected to play again after his injury I think hed be willing to waive his no movement clause

I would think that the players who will be exposed in the draft have to be able and willing to play.

Perrault is a UFA he is exposed to the whole NHL but doesn't count for the Jets experienced player that needs to expose.  Neither does Little  if he does not play.

* One defenseman who is a) under contract in 2021-22 and b) played in at least 40 NHL games the prior season or played in at least 70 NHL games in the prior two seasons.



* Two forwards who are a) under contract in 2021-22 and b) played at least 40 NHL games the prior season or played in at least 70 NHL games in the prior two seasons.



* One goalie who is under contract in 2021-22 or will be a restricted free agent at the end of his current contract immediately prior to 2021-22. If a team elects to make a restricted free agent goalie available to meet this requirement, that goalie must have received his qualifying offer prior to the submission of the team's protected list.



* Players with potential career-ending injuries who have missed more than the previous 60 consecutive games (or who otherwise have been confirmed to have a career-threatening injury) may not be used to satisfy a team's player exposure requirements unless approval is received from the NHL. Such players also may be deemed exempt from selection.

Roslovic and Lowry and Dahlstrom, Laine and Copp might be RFAs  at the time and could be exposed depending on whether they have signed for 2021-22.   RFAs skaters have to be protected but don't count towards the exposure rule.
