1. Each Team will post their protected player and players that meet the exposure requirements.
2. Vegas will quote and reply to each team, posting his selection (so we see that team's list and his selection in the same post for reference).
3. Vegas will edit his selections into his first post so we can easily verify them and track his progress.
IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER REGARDING EXPANSION
April 27, 12 P.M. EST; the Roster freeze will occur. From then until May 1, 12 P.M. EST (or earlier if Vegas has made all of its roster selections before the deadline), NO trades or deals may occur. Please do not use the team threads for discussion. The Master Thread, Expansion Help Thread, and some other threads may be used for discussion and communication amongst all GMs
By April 29, 12 P.M. EST, ALL players you have signed on your roster need to be moved up onto your visible roster. This means all the players you currently have assigned to junior or minors need to be brought up onto the visible active roster. We will be ignoring the salary cap during the expansion draft and offseason so do not worry about the fact you're well over the salary cap.
Also on April 29 at 12 P.M. EST, everyone's expansion protection lists are due. These are to be posted on the "Official Expansion Protection List Thread". Remember that you can either go for a 7-3-1 format or 8-1 format. When the thread is posted, once you post your teams expansion protection list on that thread you WILL NOT be allowed to change your list. ONLY expansion protection lists are to be posted on this thread (no commenting on others posts please). That means you cannot edit your post on that thread even if you accidentally posted the wrong player to be protected. THERE WILL NOT BE EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE. Please be thourough and careful when posting your expansion protection lists to ensure that no errors are made.
Vegas will begin making its expansion selections on the 29th at noon EST. They will have until May 1 at noon EST to make their selections. Vegas will post their selections by quoting each team's expansion protection list in the "Official Expansion Protection List Thread" and commenting with who the selected player is. Remember that Vegas is the only team allowed to comment in this thread. The rest of us are ONLY allowed to post your official expansion protection list (no editing posts once list is published, NO EXCEPTIONS).
Once all of this is over, the roster freeze will be lifted and everything will return to normal.
WHAT CANNOT BE EMPHASIZED ENOUGH, IS THAT IF YOU ARE UNSURE IF YOUR LIST IS COMPLIANT, PLEASE ASK!!!!!
