With the Vegas Golden Knights officially introduced, logos and all, who should the Bruins expose to a move out west?
The Bruins must leave unprotected at least two forwards and one defensemen who have contracts running until 2018 AND have either played in 40 games this year or 70 games the past two seasons combined.
Teams also must leave unprotected a goalie whose contract runs until 2018, or has negotiating rights that run until then. This is no issue, as the Bruins made sure to sign players this offseason who would help fill those rules in Riley Nash and Anton Khudobin.
