Elliotte Friedman reports that Jakub Voracek was told that the Flyers expect him to leave him exposed in the expansion draft. He says if Seattle doesn’t claim Voracek, the team will explore other means of moving him.
In NHL Trade Rumors’ Mock Expansion Draft, Philadelphia gave Seattle a 2nd round pick to take on Voracek’s $8.25 million cap hit for the next three seasons.
Friedman notes that both sides are prepared that a deal might not get done, but are going to explore the possibility of moving their separate ways.
