NHL Expansion Draft: Vancouver Canucks Primer

The Vancouver Canucks will have some interesting decisions to make on who to protect in the expansion draft coming up. Will they go seven forwards, three defenseman, and one goaltender or will they go eight skaters (forwards/defenseman) and one goaltender. They will have some tough choices for some of their spots but let’s take a look at their forward decisions first and then I’ll go through the rest of their decisions.

Forward Decisions

Vancouver will have to protect their three forwards who have no movement clauses and those would be the Sedin twins and Loui Eriksson who was just signed last year to a six year contract.
