Hi everybody and welcome to Episode 64 of Season 2 of Red Wings Rant hosted by the Brothers of Discussion and brought to you by the Hockey Podcast Network.  Where tirades and impassioned pleas about your Detroit Red Wings, finally, have a home.

In today’s episode, we take a look at who the Detroit Red Wings decided to protect in the 2021 Seattle Expansion Draft. We also look at who the Red Wings left exposed for the expansion draft and who is most likely to be headed to Seattle.

#RedWings protection list: Bertuzzi, Erne, Fabbri, Larkin, Rasmussen, Smith, Vrana, Hronek, Leddy, Lindstrom, Greiss.

Exposed: Namestnikov, Nielsen, DeKeyser, Stecher.

We also pick apart the Nick Leddy trade and why this trade for the Red Wings is 'fine'. Yzerman did not fleece the New York Islanders and the return of Nick Leddy will help the Red Wings.

Finally, we put together a couple of Seattle Kraken teams that could challenge for the President’s Trophy, thanks to JFresh and his Seattle Roster Builder. We picked through the 100’s of players available in the Seattle Expansion Draft and mocked a few different versions of the draft that the people of Seattle would be VERY happy to see happen.
