Hello everyone,
With the playoffs cruising along I wanted to put out some reminders on the expansion draft and a few little things around it.

May 10: 12:00 AM: Trading reopens. When a player is traded, they will go to whichever KPD roster they were on on their previous team.
May 10 5:00 PM: Expansion draft roster lock date* Players can no longer be moved to/from AHL/NHL rosters

Jul. 17: Expansion draft protected list submission: : This is a hard date and if not submitted by this date, your list will be put together by the rules committee based on fairness.
Jul. 23: Expansion Draft
All of the above are extensions of the regular season and up until the expansion draft is completed, regular season rules will apply. So when making trades, and moving players to from AHL/NHL, roster rules such as salary cap, roster min/max etc... still apply.
If a player is still on IR, he can be left there, however, for purposes of expansion protection, he will be treated as an NHL rostered player unless demoted to minors if he meets requirements, or passes demotion waivers.
I am in the process of putting together a list of each team's players who are currently exposed. I will add it to the master sheet when completed sometime next week.
If time and schedule allows, I would like to do a live version of the expansion draft. If not, I will figure something creative out to have some fun with it.
As for the KPD Entry Draft, a draft lottery will be held in the coming weeks. As the expansion team, we will follow the NHL's procedure and the Kraken will have the same lottery odds as the #3 entry in the lottery.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
