The following comes from the tweets of Pierre Lebrun of TSN..and is truly crazy...

"Team X could offer Vegas an asset in exchange for signing a pending UFA from another team during that unique window (when Vegas has the ability to get first shot at ANY UFA) Then Vegas would flip that signed player to Team X. But key is that Vegas must wait until after expansion draft to flip the signed player...That's because any signed free agent during the unique window counts as one of Vegas' roster picks for expansion draft...Might be worth the asset for Vegas if it counts as an expansion draft pick from a team that doesn't have much to select from to begin with..
And FYI, league source says all of this is permissible. Just another potential expansion draft week wrinkle...."

This, and many other factors. are why this year's rumor chart will launch tomorrow with a ton of players on it, and why the next 8 weeks could be the most insane rumor time we have ever seen around here...

On to tonight...
