More and more likely Neal is left exposed?

Doesn't sound like there is progress being made as Nashville tries to encourage Vegas from locking on to a player the Preds want to keep.

Doubt anything "big" happens with the Isles today, but Snow is in a number of conversations, hoping to land a top 6 forward. Team to watch.

Do the Flames have to protect a goalie?(Are there any penalties if the Flames don't protect a goalie.) It is looking like they might not protect one(unless they trade for one(which is looking very unlikely right now) or if they sign Elliott or Johnson.

They have to protect a goalie, but they can put Elliott or Johnson on their list to fill that spot. It's a nothingburger problem.

I thought McCollum took care of that issue.

They are both UFA's, can they do that?

I think they have to expose one(McCollum) and protect one(?).

Thank you for clearing that, than I think we can say, that we may not get our starting goaltender, until the draft?

Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun
Lots of teams waiting for lists to be announced Sunday so they can then call Vegas and work out trades for unprotected guys from other teams

Neal would be a great fit as a top line winger. Treliving should absolutely be in on that.

No they are not. They are still under contract with the Flames until July 1st.

Default 2016/2017 Trade Speculation and Rumors

Will be interesting to see if teams do use LV as a way to get players from other teams. Vegas could use this as a way to accrue a ton of picks/prospects. Would be a smart move for them too. I'd be asking for more picks from next year's draft though if I were them since this draft is considered so weak depth-wise.

While all teams are busy...taking/making calls, doesn't sound like it's heating up on the Eberle front. Likely next week. Good interest.

The Golden Knights do have to build a full roster so there's probably a finite amount of draft picks they are willing go take on in lieu of warm bodies. For example they may prefer the Flames trade them a prospect close to NHL ready such as Andersson.

I think it is more likely Methot moves than Phaneuf

Bruce Garrioch @SunGarrioch
Led to believe Cody Ceci has been informed he will be protected. That means either Phaneuf or Methot could be on the move. #Sens

Tough pill to swallow to keep Phanuef at 7x4 million over Methot at 4.9x2

@FriedgeHNIC: Because of protection issues, word is FLA's Jonathan Marchessault is potentially available. 30 goals, great contract.

pros for the Flames: RHS, can play RW, $750k cap hit
cons: 5'9'' last season could be a flash in the pan, protection list issues

Get. Get. Get. Get. Get.

Treliving needs to be all over this. Marchy would be a terrific fit on the first line.
