The contraction draft will start at 8p.m. EST on Thursday, 4/19. This will give you all enough time to trade picks, finalize lists, etc. Please check the rules thread for further info.

[Andrew]

Please make your selections in this thread. If you need to drop a player to make room for your selection indicate that here.

ie.
"Team A selects player A for his prospect roster and drops player B to make room"

Ovechkin, drop sullivan

[CanucksGM]

lundqvist drop khabibulin

[Boston Bruins]

Boston Select Pietrangelo, Alex and drops Brule.

Had hopes for Brule in Pho but he is not really playing in the playoffs.

Really wanted to shore up my defense that is either retiring or sucked.

[SensGM]

Ottawa selects Dustin Byfuglien. Drop Wojtek Wolski.

[jtitan]

after aquiring the 5th pick, Pittsburg selects Tukka Rask and drops mush head Chris Pronger

[ltspears]

The San Jose Sharks select: Slava Voynov

[Andrew]

Via proxy, Winnipeg has selected Jason Spezza and releases Saku Koivu

[Andrew]

Rangers was busy but dropped me a quick note. He wants to make his selection and indicate his drop later tonight when he gets a chance to look closer at his team, etc.

I'm fine with that, in the interests of moving the draft along (you can all wait an extra few hours to claim his drop on waivers I guess)

Rangers select Rick Nash, with a drop to be named in a few hours.

[panthershockey01]

Florida picks Henrik Zetterberg, drops Milan Hejduk

[dyzfunctioned]

thanks andrew. jarrett stoll is my drop.

[Andrew]

No problem. I figured it wasnt a huge deal for everyone to wait a little longer to claim Stoll on waivers

[lostcause]

EDM welcomes TJ Oshie back to the team.

No need to drop anyone, roster is now at 23.
