NHL EXPANSION DRAFT
To what degree can teams use the expansion draft to “get out of cap jail”? How likely is Seattle to pick high priced veterans?

RE: NHL EXPANSION DRAFT
Seattle would be limited themselves by the cap. If you have a high-dollar player that you want to dispose of, but think you can't get anything in return, you don't protect them and hope Seattle takes them. A wiser route would be to trade that player to Seattle for an early-round draft pick.
