So if you can't get a Pickard or Korpisalo or whomever else is a backup to potential starter for one of the 2nd round picks in the 50's....maybe you stay patient.
That expansion draft is going to force someone to blink, if the urgency isn't there now for Tampa to trade Vasilevski or Bishop. It will eventually show up. If the protected lists are what the rumors are suggesting I don't see expansion teams

Treliving played chicken last year signing Ramo before peddling Hiller and it resulted in the 3-headed goalie monster. I don't think he will take any chances this offseason and I don't think Ramo will be in any conversations for next season.
