bilzfancy Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Botterill makes his first trade, getting LHD Nathan Beaulieu for this year's 3rd rd draft pick

Anybody like this move?

Anybody like this move?yeah, I do, former 1sr Rd pick still young, 24, needs maturing, but could thrive under Housley's tutaledge, good size, very good skater
Alaska Darin Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Great trade. 3rd rounders make it about 15% of the time and defensemen get better over a much longer timeline than forwards. Beaulieu has some size, can skate, and can move the puck. At this time, only Risto is clearly better. Let's see what Housley can do with him.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Nice! This defense is markedly better on paper. I'm guessing this move means Bogo is exposed? I like the youngster Guhle, too.
plenzmd1 Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 Am I to understand correctly that this is it in regards to trades before the expansion draft? No trades from now to the draft correct? I know folks may have traded picks to Vegas to ly off certain guys or take certain guys, but in terms of trades involving all non-expansion teams...thats it???? Really NcKenzie, Dreger, and Friedmen...this is going to be the craziest offseason ever??? Maybe I am missing something, and I had a feeling there would be little movement and stated that loudly in the other thread, but damn these guys were way off. So now we wait till July 1 I am guessing to see if Kane gets traded for a D Man.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 18, 2017 Author Posted June 18, 2017 @PR_NHL UPDATE: The NHL will announce Available/Protected Lists for the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft today at 10:30 a.m. ET. #VegasDraft
26CornerBlitz Posted June 18, 2017 Author Posted June 18, 2017 @TSN_Sports BREAKING: Protected lists for all 30 #NHL teams are public as the @GoldenKnights prepare for the expansion draft. http://www.tsn.ca/1.782246 BUFFALO SABRESAvailableWilliam Carrier (F)Nicolas Deslauriers (F)Brian Gionta (F)Derek Grant (F)Justin Kea (F)Matt Moulson (F)Cal O'Reilly (F)Cole Schneider (F)Brady Austin (D)Mathew Bodie (D)Zach Bogosian (D)Justin Falk (D)Taylor Fedun (D)Cody Franson (D)Josh Gorges (D)Dmitry Kulikov (D)Anders Nilsson (G)Linus Ullmark (G)ProtectedTyler Ennis (F)Marcus Foligno (F)Zemgus Girgensons (F)Evander Kane (F)Johan Larsson (F)Ryan O'Reilly (F)Kyle Okposo (F)Nathan Beaulieu (D)Jake McCabe (D)Rasmus Ristolainen (D)Robin Lehner (G)
plenzmd1 Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 I would have protected Carrier instead of Ennis...but think that is splitting hairs. Guess the thought on Ullmrak is Fleury is expected to be taken and actually stay and be the starter.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 18, 2017 Author Posted June 18, 2017 @kevsylvester Replying to @BrianBlessing I was told Murray had made a deal to not take Carrier, but that may have changed with GM Botterill
QCity Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 Hard to say with all the backroom deals going on, but it looks like Carrier is gone? Maybe it's part of a deal to unload Bogo to them as well.
