Was thinking earlier. Is Schneider the goalie we can make available for expansion draft?

Text book Trotz-Isles performance tonight. This team has been showing something over the last couple of weeks. Onward and upward

They have been getting back to the Trotz shutdown style. Let's hope they can keep it up.

Does Sorokin start Tuesday? I’d have to lean towards yes. Varlamov could use a bit of a break.

I doubt it, but I'm not sure. That sounds like a chiefs question.

I'd probably start to rotate them, so I'd say no to Tuesday, but yes to Thursday.

I would start Sorokin, but I would bet Trotz gives Varlamov the start.

I would start Sorokin until he gives you reason not to at this point

So if you doubt Schneider can be made available, that means we expose Varly? I know you don’t know but wondering if anyone else does.

It's early yet to make that decision, but yeah, they probably have to expose Varly. His $5 million cap hit might be a small deterrent.

Now we need Komarov to get on track and get back to scoring goals.

Yeah I hear you, definitely too early and a lot of hockey to play. Was just wondering and didn’t know the answer so figured I’d put it out there if anyone knew.

nice to see Whalstrom getting some points. Kid is a sniper.. glad he is playing the way Trotz likes so he keeps getting in there... If Bellows ever figures it out he is a sniper too. would love having those 2 on JGP line... don't see that happening this season.

I think Sorokin is exempt and Schneider will be exposed. Not positive about Sorokin but I'm pretty sure he is.

Sorokin is exempt. Also did the Isles draft Bouldic with the Pick they got in the Hamonic deal?
