    All signs point to the Seattle Kraken signing and selecting pending UFA goalie Chris Driedger from the Florida Panthers as part of the expansion draft process, sources say.

    Allen is safe. Now the game of chicken starts on Price.

    I see people saying that there is no way Seattle selects both Price and Tank because they wouldn’t want to tie up so much Cap in two players. But if you look at Tampa, Pittsburgh, Vegas, Washington, etc, many of those teams have that much money tied up in their top two guys. Personally I think it only makes sense to select both of them and give yourself a chance to be competitive right out of the gate.

    Neither team has a guy exposed that Seattle should take over those guys (maybe Dunn but that’s pushing it). I think Francis has the balls to go for it

    Said this with more detail in the Price thread, but if I'm Seattle, I don't worry about next year (or the following year).
    Enjoy the full stadiums that come with newness, and try to be near the bottom and be in position for Wright, Lavoie, Lambert, Bedard, Michkov....

    There are gonna be a few teams looking to be bottom 2-3 in these drafts, and Seattle is the team that can do it with the least resistance from a fanbase methinks. I'd rather have two of those youngsters over Price (contract) and Tarasenko (contract and no shoulders).

    Vegas set an unrealistic precedent that only seems real in hindsight. Nobody expected that when they first made their picks. They literally started their playoff run with a show of quotes from all the "experts" saying they'd be terrible.

    You know what would be crazy.

    If for the next expansion draft all the teams did a full on draft of every available player.

    Auction Draft style - bids would then be the players cap hit.
    Would have to figure out how to handle certain bonuses.
