Yeah, they are likely going to lose a Dman in this, especially if they keep both Vatanen and Lindholm, but luckily for them they are a freaking defenseman factory and probably won't even feel it.
Assuming they keep all of them:
P - Bieksa
P - Lindholm (22)
P - Fowler (24)
Vatanen (25)
Despres (24)
Stoner
Manson (24)
Theodore (20) Exempt from expansion draft
8 NHL defensemen, and the cupboard is hardly bare:
Brandon Montour (22) - 57 points as a rookie in the AHL
Jacob Larsson (19) - 1st rounder from last year
Marcus Pettersson (20) - 2nd rounder from 2014, big mobile Dman
I want to laugh at them, but I can't. They are too good at developing players, especially defensemen.
