kliq 3,755 Report post Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) 4 minutes ago, marcaractac said: Why would Vegas draft a UFA? That doesn't make any sense. If Bish has any interest in Vegas, he can sign there July 1st. Vegas does not need to, and won't, waste a pick on a UFA. I think the way it works is they are able to negotiate with him first, and if they sign him (which they can do prior to July 1st) it counts as their pick. The benefit would be you are guaranteed the player, opposed to if you wait until July 1st, then any other team can outbid you. I guess it all depends on how good the other players on said team are that you have to choose from. Edited February 27, 2017 by kliq Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote iii) One goaltender who is under contract in 2017-18 or will be a restricted free agent at the expiration of his current contract immediately prior to 2017-18. If the club elects to make a restricted free agent goaltender available in order to meet this requirement, that goaltender must have received his qualifying offer prior to the submission of the club's protected list.

For an elite goaltender they get back a 7th, a goalie who is set to be a UFA, and Cernak. Now if Cernak is a stud in the waiting, I take it back. My thoughts exactly.. Cernak is either good or that was the only team offering anything for bishop. Maybe both Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaps80 1,591 Report post Posted February 27, 2017 14 minutes ago, ChristopherReevesLegs said: Yes. Yeah I had to look it up. Kinda weird that you can use a player who will be a free agent to fulfill your exposure requirements. Especially since the draft is only a couple days before July 1. Not sure if I see Bishop claimed though. Why they would Vegas pick a UFA instead of a player under contract since it's a toss up if they'll sign with them (unless they have commitment to sign from that UFA). The player could sign elsewhere and they just lost one of their picks. I'd think they'd just try to negotiate with him when he hits free agency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vegas will have a window to try and work out a deal with Bishop before the expansion draft, which would count as LA's lost player if he signs. BUT LA cannot use Bishop as their exposed goalie. It's still gonna be Zatkoff. 1 kliq reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That makes more sense that it would have to be a goalie under contract for the upcoming season. So Bishop won't count as their one goalie exposure. They'd have to re-sign Zatkoff or another goalie and expose him too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaps80 1,591 Report post Posted February 27, 2017 38 minutes ago, kliq said: Got to feel bad for Budaj. The guy stood on his head all year, and now he's out of the playoff picture, nice reward for strong play. Hopefully he gets traded to a contender. Yeah Budaj was the reason the Kings have the playoffs in the picture still by the time Quick was ready. After moving around the league and starting the season in the AHL i thought he was long done, but he came back and was rock solid and the Kings MVP. Sucks he just got cast aside like that and traded to Tampa and out of the playoffs after that performance. He saved the Kings season and they ship him out at first opportunity. Pretty s***ty move, but it is a business I guess. The trade for Bishop is kind of just asking for conflict, but it was obv a hard trade to not make. Quick is the starter an has been for years. He may welcome Bishop, but he may also not like another star goalie in the dressing room ready to snag his job if given opportunity. Could end up like our own Hasek/Joseph debacle.
