Protected list question. A goalie spot could be empty?

Nope, they have to protect one.

But it doesn't really matter because the Flames can protect Elliott or Johnson and it counts.

Could the Flames use the empty goalie spot to get an asset? If another team wants to protect an extra goalie, temporarily trade the goalie's rights to the Flames, then protect him and trade back for a pick (as payment for protection) after the expansion draft? Probably a number of obvious reasons not to do that I'm missing, just thinking outside the box....

The league says that teams have to protect a minimum (e.g., they HAVE to choose 8 skaters 1 goalie or 7-3-1). Presumably it's to satisfy the NHLPA's demands.

That is blatant circumvention.

Sounds like Phaneuf and Bieksa BOTH will be protected. Phaneuf wouldn't waive his NMC and Bieksa was never asked.

Gonna be an interesting week.

Does anyone have a handy summary or a link to a handy summary that lists all the key dates coming up with the protected lists, Las Vegas roster announcement, entry draft, FA negotiating window, and the July 1 start of FA season? It's going to be a busy 2.5 weeks.

Anaheim has a deal in place already with Las Vegas so they didn't need Bieksa to waive it.

It'll be interesting to hear if any players hear about being available from anyone other than their organization its front office in that 17 hour window before the protected lists are made public. There probably will be some leaks.

Not sure where to put this but why oh why do they have an Oilers fan writing Flames articles for Sportsnet?

I put this in another thread:

So he thinks Tre will expose the 25 year old big, fast winger who scored 15 goals and will probably cost about $1.5 million against the cap and protect the 32 year old big, slow winger who scored 13 goals and costs $4.5 million against the cap?

Yeah, that seems plausible.


EDIT: Read the article more closely, and I get what he's saying. He thinks Calgary MIGHT leave Ferland available for Vegas to take instead of Brouwer in order to get something out of it. Like for instance a goalie in exchange for Stajan or something along those lines.

Trading him back would seem like a problem but it sure seems the cost of acquiring a goalie who's going to be exposed should be cheap.
