1999 NHL Expansion Draft - Post-draft

Post-draft

Several of the players selected by the Thrashers in the Expansion Draft did not stay with the team long after the draft. In fact, the Thrashers traded two players later in the same day:

• Trevor Kidd (traded to Florida for Gord Murphy, Daniel Tjarnqvist, Herberts Vasiljevs, and a sixth-round pick (Justin Cox) in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft)
• Peter Ferraro (traded to Boston for Randy Robitaille)

Other players who were no longer on the Thrashers' roster at the start of the 1999–2000 season include the following:

• Phil Crowe (traded to Nashville for future considerations on June 26, 1999)
• Jamie Pushor (traded to Dallas for Jason Botterill and cash and 7th round draft pick on July 15, 1999)
• Terry Yake (claimed off waivers by St. Louis on September 30, 1999)
• Alexei Yegorov (released before the season began)
• Mark Tinordi (retired before the season began)
