Could Dallas leave Nichushkin exposed? It will be one of him, Eakin, Ritchie, or Roussel.
Does Florida expose Jagr?
Nashville will likely move one of its top four in a trade. They won't let Ekholm or Ellis walk for nothing.
As for the LV roster:
They'll have no shortage of solid veterans, with guys like D Brown, C Kunitz, and J Williams. But otherwise their forward group is going to be weak.
The defence will be strong. Better than a half-dozen NHL teams.
Goaltending will be about average.

Jagr will be a UFA so he won't have to be protected as long as he resigns after the expansion draft.
