OK NHL puckheads since a lot of folks like doing mock drafts for the Hawks/NFL how about giving a way too early Kraken mock expansion draft a shot.

Must follow the NHL’s rules and parameters, including salary cap floors and ceilings and no picks from the VGK. I know nothing about the NHL player base and who’s good and who’s not. Anyone want to take a shot at it?

Well expansion draft has to happen first doesn't it with teams declaring who they make available, I think that is how Vegas really stacked their team initially from what I read.
