I don't believe it will happen personally. For the reason that you are giving such a small benefit to the expansion team and absolutely punishing a small number of teams. Look at that list - there is just a small number of teams that would be exposing a different player or two.
For Calgary the biggest issue isn't that you have to protect Wideman per se and expose someone else, it's that it would make him virtually untradeable at the deadline.
