Expansion Draft (Hypothetical, OT) 

Post#1 » by babyjax13 » Mon Jul 4, 2011 6:32 pm

This is pretty simple, and hopefully it will be a fun discussion during the lockout. If there were to be an expansion draft, what 8 players from your roster would you protect?

The rules:
1. Unrestricted free agents are not available to an expansion team to draft.
2. Unsigned draft picks are not available for the expansion team to draft.
3. Restricted free agents are available.
4. Each team must have at least one player unprotected, so if team x had 8 players under contract and 4 that were UFAs, it could only protect 7 players.
5. The expansion team can only draft one player from each roster and must have at least 14 players.

I 2nd this list. For us its pretty easy but for other teams only being able to protect 8 players could make things interesting. Teams like Houston and Minnesota could have some very tough decisions.
