To NJ:
Assurance that Anti Raantta will not be selected in the expansion draft.

Confirmed. Good doing business with you Tim

[bills09]

Tim should be all over deals like this amazing opportunity to load up on free picks

These will be easier to do post-lock and I anticipate I'll get more done then.

[Handsome&FairMike]

Seems cheap. Feel like I would prefer Raanta over Coreau (or any other expansion player from NJ) plus those picks.

[Loki]

I've been impressed with the way Tim is approaching the expansion draft, I think he's going to make out like a bandit

3 goalie max

[bills09]

I'd assume NJ loses Ward or Morrow.

[Loki]

I'm fine with losing anyone else who's exposed. Mostly I just wanted some security with my goaltending situation

Assume he's taking Ericsson which is who I thought he would take anyway.

[Loki]

There's a good chance Tim was never going to take Raanta anyway. I'd fully expect him to play it the way he did and say he was considering him. If so bravo, exactly what he should be doing in his position.

Really eh? Guess I'm out to lunch. Raanta was easy pick for me from what was available.

[Matthew]

Kinda surprised at this. Raanta was by far lokis best available piece, imo.

If he could take more than 3 goalies sure, but as such why would he take a backup goalie that is no longer waiver exempt?

[Loki]

TBH I think the 3 goalie limit is the only reason Tim backed off on the price

BINGO

[Handsome&FairMike]

Love to know what better goalie options there are available.

I'm there 3 would be starters right off the top of my head that I can think of. And we already covered Stolarz earlier tonight if he chooses to stash a goalie in his minors.

[Monk]

Seems awfully cheap, should've gotten much higher picks

Who's to say Loki would've paid it? If you aren't going to take the player anyway, take the free picks.
