It's a shame too, you'd think Tocchet would be a perfect fit for a team in Las Vegas...

Question: Are you limited at how many players you leave unprotected? Detroit is only obligated to protect Nilsson. A bunch of the younger guys aren't eligible for the draft anyhow. Could Detroit leave extra people unprotected if they so choose?

It would be a strange thing to do though. Even if you don't care about who of your unprotected players gets claimed, not using up all your slots is going to send a message to your players, and to other teams that maybe you don't want to send.

Supposedly Vegas will be naming their GM tomorrow and George McPhee is the rumored guy.

Vegas is going to have a kickass expansion draft and then trade them all for Martin Erat.

Honestly, for all his faults, you can do a lot worse than McPhee.

Laurence Gilman is very cool and very good and I don't think its a coincidence Benning went completely off the deep end after he was fired.

in "no poo poo" news, naming your team the black knights might run into trademark problems: http://sinbin.vegas/not-so-fast-on-knights-black-grey-and-gold-change-certainly-possible/ also "the creator" is possibly the most annoying way to refer to the owner possible im looking forward to the GOLDBLACKS personally

quote:Silver Knights is one they can get, but The Creator doesn’t like it. He said to a group of media after the press conference it just doesn’t have the pizzaz and doesn’t invoke the powerful feel he’s looking for. Which makes sense, because by the time you get to Anor Londo, you should know how to parry & riposte silver/black knights.
