No, but any current roster player besides him and possibly Couts could be available

Giroux, Mason, Voracek, Couterier all safe

If Hexy and Jake are far apart on an extension, I could see him being dealt.

The other three are probably safe. Same with Raffl because he probably holds more value on the team than in a trade.

I could also see a scenario where Mark Streit gets moved.

I wonder how much money Janet Jones Gretzky had on Dustin Johnson yesterday.

Personally, i would skip my 5 year anniversary dinner to watch this draft. But that's just me.

Kane is the top RW and got $10M. I think Voracek feels he's 80% as good as Kane. I feel like the number will be closer to $8M over 8 years.

Guy just finished top 5 in scoring

I loved it, but can you imagine how much we'd hate him had he played for any other team during that point in his career?

If by strangely you mean incorrectly then we're together on this one.

You are correct, but the fantasy of how he worded them (the last 2, anyway) is a happier place.

I expect Voracek to come in no lower than 7.5 on a 7-8 year deal. They won't pay him more than Giroux. I wouldn't be surprised if it were as high as 8 million though.
