There are many better D-men they could take then Jokipakka. I bet we lose Stajan. Although I'll note that we'll need to sign a D-man for two years (or extend Jokipakka) to meet the requirements as quoted).

Bouma won't be a UFA he has two years left. Expires 2018.

I'm saying they will be to meet the exposure requirements.

The Oilers should really leave Nuge and Eberle un-protected...but they really don't have anything better to protect! (McDavid would be exempt - correct?)

I hope Vegas hires a GM dumb enough to take one of our bad contracts instead of one of our young D.

One player must be picked from each team for a total of thirty players.

Bear in mind that LV will not be able to select just whomever they wish from the unprotected lists. They need to draft a specified number of forwards, defensemen, and goalies, and they will need to draft $43 m of player salaries. By that measure they may be in a position where one of the Flames high priced veterans is the best option for them.

If I was a betting man, I'd say that Frolik will be the player claimed from the Flames.

He will be among the better players left exposed, and the Flames will want to move forward without his fair, but unnecessary cap hit.

Why would he be exposed?

I honestly can't see him being unprotected. He's one of the Flames best Wingers, unless something miraculous changes in the next year.

This nice and all for the coming expansion but aren't we possibly going to get super shafted when the Quebec expansion comes?

Frolik will get protected, almost because we don't have many other forwards worth protecting.

7 Forwards
1. Gaudreau
2. Monahan
3. Bennett
4. Backlund
5. Frolik
6. Shinkaruk?
7. Ferland / Colborne?

3 Defence
1. Giordano
2. Brodie
3. Hamilton

1 Goalie
1. Whoever we acquire

I would think one of Colborne, Ferland, or Bouma would be prime candidates to be exposed and picked.

Does Kylington's Swedish pro experience mean he'll need to be protected?

The CBA says time in Europe doesn't count as pro experience unless the player was under contract to an NHL club. Since the announced rules don't contain their own definition of pro experience, we must assume the CBA applies.

So no, Kylington's time in Sweden doesn't count.

I think that's the million dollar question everyone needs clarified. What is classified as a Pro league. The answer could drastically change who gets protected by teams.
