Hello and welcome to another live chat!
Boy, what a trade deadline...err, I guess.
I'll let some stuff roll in and get started in a few minutes

how does players with ntc work with expansoin draft.Can you try to get them to waive it,with draft picks or players going the other way as well?
Gavin Lee
6:09
So importantly, it is only no-movement clauses (NMC) that force protection.
No trade clauses don't affect the expansion draft at all
But, even with the NMC, you can get the player to waive it if they agree.
6:10
This was the case with Marc-Andre Fleury, who waived it to go to Vegas.
His last act for the Penguins, as it were
6:11
The Penguins then sent Vegas a draft pick to ensure they picked Fleury
Gary
6:17
Biggest surprising trade that happened besides the Mantha trade?
Gavin Lee
6:18
I think for me it's probably the Bennett deal, though him getting traded isn't really the surprising part.
6:19
Florida wasn't a team that I had ever really considered for him, and the return was actually a pretty substantial one

what did you think about the Sharks deadline day minor moves?
Gavin Lee
6:19
I love that they got involved and added some picks for nothing but cap space.
6:20
Crona is an interesting addition as well, though not at all a sure thing
Barabanov I bet will be back in Russia next season
but who knows, maybe he catches on with them

reports that Detroit is still a long way in their rebuild. If they traded mantha, could others be traded? Larkin? Bertuzzi? Reset the rebuild and go for Wright or lambert or savoie?
Gavin Lee
6:20
Bertuzzi is very much in play for the summer
6:21
They're not looking to move Larkin, but Yzerman is building it from the ground up, if a deal is to be made they'll do it.
No reason to reset anything though, this was always part of it.
Yzerman has been slowly clearing the books of any long-term money
So that he can go in any direction he chooses.
Mantha was the player with the longest deal on the team
6:22
They now have 16 picks in the top 4 rounds between 2021/22

What is going on in Philly???? I sense a major shakeup? Have to address the defence. Maybe in-house with York?
Gavin Lee
6:23
York is going to be a good player, yes
But I do think a shakeup to that group is coming
There were a few whispers about Nolan Patrick at the deadline, and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they move several of their forwards out this summer
Mike
6:24
Can u see Rossi and Addison joining Minny next year also Boldy
Gavin Lee
6:24
The latest on Rossi is that he's back to light skating, which is excellent news
I hope that he can recover completely because I have so much faith in him as a future star
6:25
As for Boldy, he could potentially be up before the end of THIS season for a taste
He has looked outstanding in his first bit of AHL action
6:26
Addison, well he is right on the cusp but I'll have to see what happens to the depth chart before I pencil him in for regular work
Krak-head
6:27
I need my fix.... Any news on kraken front?
Gavin Lee
6:27
Ron Francis was working the phones about as hard as anyone on trade deadline day.
They can't make moves, but he can still talk
6:28
There's nothing to announce until they get full standing with the league
