NLL announces protected lists

Expansion draft for Edmonton, Portland to be held on 13 July

R.A. Philly
Outsider's Guide Editor in Chief


The National Lacrosse League today announced the protected lists for the upcoming expansion draft.

The draft, to be held on Wednesday, 13 July at 4:00 PM Eastern via conference call, will be held to help stock the rosters of the Edmonton Rush and the unnamed Portland franchise, which will each begin play in 2006.

Teams were permitted to protect either (a) two goaltenders and ten runners or (b) one goaltender and thirteen runners. Minnesota and San Jose chose Option A, while the other seven teams went for Option B.

Each existing club will lose two players in the expansion draft. After its first lost player, a team will be allowed to protect an additional player.

Several notable players were left exposed in the draft, including Arizona forwards Cory Bomberry and Chris Panos, Buffalo forward Aime Caines, Calgary forward Ted Dowling, Colorado defenseman Pat Coyle, and San Jose goaltender Rob Blasdell.

Portland will select first after winning a coin flip during the NLL's annual meeting earlier this month in Las Vegas.
