Good idea for a game.
Intro
My name is Alex and I am a multi-millionaire philantropist residing in the GTA. I have just secured a deal to bring a 31st team in to the NHL, the Quebec Revolution. (I thought it was a snazzy name, it can be changed if I get some good suggestions)
We will be having an expansion draft. Using the rules of the 2000 expansion draft, which I will post seperately, I will draft my team.
Forum members are allowed to claim up to 3 teams to be the GM of.

RULES REGARDING WHO MAY BE PROTECTED
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_NHL_Expansion_Draft
26 of the 28 teams existing in the league at the time of the draft were each allowed to protect either one goaltender, five defensemen, and nine forwards or two goaltenders, three defensemen, and seven forwards. The Nashville Predators and Atlanta Thrashers had their entire rosters protected, as they were the two newest franchises in the league.
For teams protecting only one goaltender, there was no experience requirement for those left unprotected. For teams protecting two goaltenders, each goaltender left unprotected must have appeared in either 10 NHL games in the 1999-2000 season or 25 games in the 1998-99 season and 1999-2000 seasons combined. A goaltender had to be in net for at least 31 minutes in each game for the game to be counted against these totals.
At least one defenseman left unprotected by each team had to have appeared in at least 40 games in the 1999-2000 season or 70 games in the 1998-99 season and 1999-2000 seasons combined. At least two forwards left unprotected by each team had to have met the same requirements.
52 players were chosen in the draft, two from each participating franchise. Only one goaltender or one defensemen could be selected from each franchise. Both the Blue Jackets and the Wild were to use their first 24 selections on three goaltenders, eight defensemen, and thirteen forwards. The final two picks for each team could be any position.

Thanks for thinkin' of me, I'll take the Leafs, I guess
. . . um, knowing I'm going to protect the Leafs' only assets, what's the point? (insert laughter here) 
I'll claim the Avalanche as well, if no one else wants to.

I'm still a little confused on the rules, are your minor league players protected? Are your drafted players protected?

I am a little surprised that people are posting their protected choices before the trade deadline . . . Montreal may not have Ryder at the end of the day and may have Hossa, for instance - what then?
Leafs have a good chance to be trading before the day is done, so I will submit my protected list tomorrow morning. I would suggest others do the same, to avoid confusion.

Um, why would you have to wait for me to "deal them"?
Isn't the whole point that they are unprotected, and that you can pick them up if you like?
