Seattle Expansion

Post by Bruyns »

Good start for the Kraken, signed Larsson and rumoured to sign Oleksiak. Edmonton and Dallas had two of the exposed lists with the least to choose from so makes sense to aggressively pursue their UFAs.

They signed dreidger too.

4M per for Larsson seems solid.

Hoping a couple of my eligible guys gets selected by Seattle so I have more reason to go to Seattle and watch a few games :
Gourde, blackwell, Paquette, Lind, desmith

pls take dunn!!!! and i think it's a slam dunk for them to take dunn.. i doubt they can get a better return from tarasenko than drafting dunn.... unless they risk with tarasenko...
really like the hockey guy's mock draft too.

Spoilers galore on Twitter...the list has already been submitted so rumors are trickling out about who is or isn't being picked.

Unless They sign some free agents looks like Gourde will get a top 6 C spot which I'm happy about. Apparently Lind also going to Seattle. Interested to hear about NYR, and Pittsburgh.

Whole team is pretty much leaked.

Some weird choices like Bayreuther from CBJ with no side deal. Waiting on seeing what other side deals there are to explain other questionable picks. I think they did decent overall, young and cheap and can chase after some UFA or take on contracts in trades. I don't think they have the offence to surprise like VGK did but I didn't think VGK would be any good so who knows.

Disappointed Leafs lost McCann, would have rather exposed Holl.

holl stays. too valuable defensively
and mccann trade was to protect kerfoot anyways. worked out
and CBJ pick probably just to have their AHL depth competitive. Bayreuther is a mature pro who excels in AHL
they werent gonna waste it on domi or grigs
and maybe they werent a fan of gabe carlsson

Unless several players surprise à la Vegas, the Kraken will have a relatively week roster. I guess they went young-ish and cheap.

Is Seattle going to be a large UFA destination? Suppose they could be if they are the only ones with money left.

This sucks. Is much rather him than kerfoot

Also, protecting holl is laughable imo.

is it me or it's all about the krapfen betting on the fact other teams will be paying them to get some of their good players on fat contracts?

btw what were the alternatives to 37yrs old Giordano from the Flames?

Wonder if they look to flip Gio and retain 1/2 his salary?

Phillips was probably the next best option and he might not be anything. Already heard rumours of a Gio for R Strome deal. I think they will flip him.
