There has been a lot written across the hockey landscape about the upcoming Seattle Expansion Draft on July 21. Back in December, several mock drafts were run with many boiling it down to ether Libor Hajek and Brendan Lemieux up for grabs from the New York Rangers.
That was before Tony DeAngelo got himself excommunicated from Broadway and Brendan Lemieux demanded a trade out of NY. Those two moves alone have a huge impact since it was originally assumed DeAngelo would be protected, and Lemieux was going to be a tough decision to protect or not.
