Mike and Bradon Discuss Expansion

[Psanchez55 57]

Blueberg: Brandon, the expansion rules haven't been made known yet. But, we're assuming there will be an expansion draft. Assuming the rules don't automatically protect those of your class, how would you feel about going in the expansion draft?

 

LeBlanc: I think it could be nice. My goal is to become a key piece on whatever team I'm on. Going to an expansion team could make that happen a little sooner. But, I'm going to be ok no matter what happens. 

 

Blueberg: Generally, expansion drafts have pretty slim pickings. The top prospects are usually protected...

 

LeBlanc: Well, I might be the only one that considers me a top prospect, but if an expansion team manages to snag me, they can be content knowing they grabbed the best unprotected prospect available. 

 

Blueberg: Well, I belive in you if no-one else does. 

 

LeBlanc: I think I'm that future 1st pairing defenseman for whichever team would hypothetically take a chance on me. 

 

Blueberg: Well as I was saying...

 

LeBlanc: Don't make the same mistakes that were made in the VHL draft. Don't let me drop. Because, (ask all the teams that passed on me in my VHLm draft...) It will burn you.
