...why does Nashville need Emelin again?
Preds are giving up a 3rd apparently. Well shit, I won't complain.

NHL deals.
Brooksie with some good info on the Rangers' day here: http://nypost.com/2017/07/01/rangers-make-enormous-splash-with-discount-kevin-shattenkirk/
Some highlights:
1) Shattenkirk made his contract offer to the Rangers, rather than the other way around.
2) The Rangers tried to trade for Tyson Barrie (again, they've been trying for a good year or so now) but were told that the price would be Brady Skjei. Fuck off, Sakic.
3) They also inquired about Jacob Trouba and Justin Faulk but were told they were off-limits in both cases.
4) The possibility of buying out Marc Staal is still not completely off the table.

WTF
Edit: I guess these signings make a bit of sense? LoVerde is a RHD which the Marlies are thin on and Mueller is an AHL superstar

I am completely happy with Schultz at 5.5 guy has been sick for us for two years, well earned. I have a feeling he gets even more when this expires

is this the part where we obsess over the 50 contract limit like hfboards?

So the expansion draft format is really pathetic in the end because it was designed to get Vegas to be competitive almost right away.
It wasn't designed for Vegas to take a bunch of players, many whose original teams would have liked to keep, and deal them for cheap.

I edited my post lol, looking into it I can sort of see why they signed these guys

Alex Radulov just Instagram storied a video of himself on a plane. Wait until the end, he says "going back home". Whatever that means.

Gardiner - Zaitsev should get the top pairing mins imo.
I missed that the Blues signed Thorburn for 2 years $1.8M and Beau Bennett for 1 year, $650K. Signing Thorburn is pointless, especially after Armstrong said they were considering whether they even need an enforcer (they don't). He said they didn't want to go "cold turkey." I guess it's hard to shake the habit of giving multi-year contracts to plugs.
This probably isn't far off, with Marchenko being the 7th D. Dermott is the wildcard for me tho, if he plays great then I could see him in over Marincin
Going to Nashville?
Going to Russia?

Radu gonna get paid and destroy the KHL.
Don't blame him. That's his home and he's gonna make a shitload of money and probably win championships.

Vegas retains roughly $1.2m of Emelin's salary
Brad Hunt (who the Preds had claimed off of waivers) signs with Vegas.
Apparently Nashville's keeping Emelin. Preds have a couple of Dmen in Milwaukee who, by many reports, are almost NHL-ready on top of that. Will be interesting to see what the Preds defense looks like when all the dust settles.

Jones contract: that kind of term for a goalie isn't what I wanted to see but also, whatever. Money is maybe a little too much as well but, again, whatever. Glad to have him locked up.
Vlasic contract: I don't give a fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck about the term being so long or the money being slightly too high. Shark for life.
Thornton's contract still isn't confirmed but I like it. He was definitely not going to get a three year deal from DW. Marleau no doubt has a much harder decision to make here.

I'm not surpirsed Marleau and Thornton aren't done yet. It really sounds like at least one of them was going to the Rangers right up until the point that Shattenkirk decided to sign. One (or both) of them was the plan B for that huge amount of cap space the Rangers had created.
