Most likely? I'd think Maroon, Plekanec, Vanek will all probably move on.
I do wonder about Kane re-signing in San Jose, and Stastny staying in Winnipeg.
6:25
Tolvanen just confirmed that he's going to sign with the Preds.
Interesting.

Does Tatar's acquisition spell the end for James Neal in Vegas?
Gavin Lee
6:25
Don't think they necessarily have anything to do with each other.
If Vegas wants to sign Neal, I'm sure he'd be open to it.
But this is his last big contract in all likelihood. Money talks.

Since Nash, is a free agent after the season, do you think the Bruins will resign him. I might be wrong, that he is a free agent.
Gavin Lee
6:26
Nope, you're right. He's a UFA in July.
6:27
I do think Boston will be a top contender for him.
He seems very happy with the move, brought his family along for rest of the year.
6:37
You know I knew this would be slower than deadline day, but boy.

Ok, hawks fan here, does Q get another season on Madison ave?
Gavin Lee
6:38
I do think he sticks around, unless Bowman gets fired at the end of the year.
If they bring in a new GM, there's no telling if he'll clean house.
6:39
But I think Quenneville will be back otherwise.

How about the city of Seattle surpassing 10,000 season ticket deposits within 720 seconds? Up to 25,000 now!
Gavin Lee
6:41
I think the last one I saw was over 27,000 actually.
It's great for the city. They were flying the NHL logo on the needle today.

Assuming Seattle gets an expansion team, does Nashville move east?
Gavin Lee
6:42
I don't think they would. There is some re-alignment to be decided, but I don't think they'd want to mix it up that much. The West is already a team short.
There are plenty of different ideas out there though.

Gavin -- the Ducks had a disappointing deadline, no?  Did they do the right thing?  Do they have a chance at making a real playoff run this year? Thanks!
Gavin Lee
6:43
Probably a good thing that they didn't spend the going rate, but I don't think they're as far away from  contending as some believe.
6:44
An addition of some merit (sorry Chimera) could have helped.
6:45
They need to get to the playoffs, and then I wouldn't want to be facing some of those playoff warriors.

How would the rangers go about the draft?
Gavin Lee
6:49
One of the most interesting things to watch.
They'll probably want to keep one of the first round picks just to keep pumping talent into the pipeline, but they could really make a splash to try and land a young player to build around.
6:50
I don't think for a second that the rebuild in New York will be on for very long.
It's not a strip down and take five years kind of thing.
6:51
This draft is pretty flat from 20-60, so the Boston and Tampa picks are total lottery tickets.
6:52
But a team like Buffalo, Arizona, etc could use those instead of an underperforming young player.
Calvin Pickard

CALVIN. PICKARD.

Non Playoff team in the worst shape??  Bad contracts....aging players.... etc...    Who has the longest road to relevance?
Gavin Lee
6:53
Detroit isn't in a good place, neither is Buffalo.
6:54
Really though, as weird as it is the Canadiens might be in the most trouble. They don't have a lot coming through the pipe, and if Price doesn't get right back to his elite self that could be really troublesome.
That's a lot of Atlantic clubs.

Realistically what are the chances the rangers go after either John Tavares or Erik Karlsson?
