No chance the Oilers would lose McDavid, that's ridiculous.

It'd be whittled down to where teams have to pick something like 5-10 players to protect, including players on ELCs that were previously exempt from the expansion draft.

For reference, in 2000 the protection choices were either:

1 goalie, 5 D, 9 F
2 goalies, 3 D, 7 F
