I remember u saying this last week or so,
So I attempted to look it up...

Could not find one thing that says they can't trade guys they pick right away

- jdfitz77

I honestly doubt they could. It would seem moronic they'd be able to trade a guy right back to the team he was with.

The NHL would never let it happen

They seem to want to give Vegas a leg up on most other expansion teams, and that kind of move would only help Vegas, so who knows?

I was reading that it's almost 100% he'll be back for the start of camp.

Wouldn't be the offseason if we weren't already all for dumping Kyle Okposo one year into his deal
- CaptainRivet


I didn't really express a desire to dump KO. I'm not sure how we'd accomplish that, to be honest. I was asking for an assessment of his performance last season and expectations going forward. Nobody obliged. Do you have any thoughts on this? In relation to his contract, career stage and health?

Well if there were stipulations,
You'd think we'd actually be able to find them somewhere

Actually...
kinda seems to me that they're letting Vegas do what they want concerning making deals

I don't think it would be moronic at all
For example:
Let's say they choose Ullmark from us,
just bc he's the best talent we've exposed
However, they don't really like him, or see him as part of their future
So they then, trade him to someone who does for a draft pick
Then, Vegas can pick a guy they actually want
Makes perfect sense

I'm talking about trading the guy right back

Like taking Ullmark, than trading him right back to Buffalo for say a 3rd rounder

Still not "moronic"

In that case, Vegas prefers a 3rd round pick
However, they simply can't choose that
They have to actually pick a player

If the NHL will let Vegas negotiate with teams to take one player over another
I don't see a reason they wouldn't allow Vegas to make whatever other deals they thought would be best as well

Dude, there is 0 chance IMO the NHL and players union would let that happen

They aren't going to hold this event where they announce a player has been selected to play for Vegas, and then immediately send him right back to that team.

That's video game stuff

I wonder what Botterill's opinion is on Pouliot, I am guessing he would be cheap and that Botterill has seen a lot of him this past year.

Maybe...
but you're the only one talking about a guy getting sent back to his original ten

What I was saying is more like Vegas could trade Ullmark (or whoever) anywhere they wanted

And again...
if what you're saying is true...
why can't we find it anywhere?

Best news I've heard all day. I hope he is as touted. I didn't see any of the World's until today.

Hamster said he backs off the puck carrier and shies away from contact. Will look right at home.

Oh I know.

It's not like I want Kane waived. I just don't want him to walk for free in a year.

and if his price is north of 6 mil per, they should trade him this summer before training camp starts
