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.

January 13, 20178 yr Author comment_242649 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?

January 14, 20178 yr comment_242813 At this point I would not protect Perreault, he can be replaced easily.
January 14, 20178 yr Author comment_242814 4 more years after this one for 4.125, per year and we are paying Armia 925k and Lowry 1.125m...
January 27, 20178 yr Author comment_245485 Lawless saying right now that he would protect Copp over Dano.

January 27, 20178 yr comment_245490 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?
January 27, 20178 yr Author comment_245493 He was saying they go 7-3-1 and leave Myers unprotected and do a deal with Vegas not to take Myers.

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).
January 27, 20178 yr Author comment_245502 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.

January 28, 20178 yr comment_245563 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, 20178 yr by Goalie
January 28, 20178 yr comment_245565 Leave Myers and Perrault exposed... Vegas can have either one of them

January 28, 20178 yr Author comment_245569 Myers has been chronically hurt since after his 2nd season.

January 28, 20178 yr comment_245590 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.
