It was suggested to me FLA's deal with VGK MAY actually be for Vegas to end up acquiring both Marchessault and Rielly Smith (also exposed).

Counter-intuitive as it may seem, there's been talk FLA was trying to move both Marchessault and Smith even before VGK entered the picture.

Lately, there's been chatter that VGK have been talking about "secondary" expansion draft trades involving Marchessault/Smith.

Does that mean VGK will get Marchessault/Smith from FLA and subsequently move one or both? Can't report it as fact by any means...

...but mere possibility, real or imagined, is one of most fascinating expansion draft rumours/reports, call em whatever you like. We'll see.
