Also NYI has Boychuk, Leddy and De Haan. If they trade Hamonic it makes more sense doing it before the expansion draft. If so the Oil have Sekera, Klefbom and Larrson. They too can't protect 4 dmen (unless they protect 8 players)
Avs deal for Duchene makes more sense. Avs have 0 issues protecting Hamonic and IMO Duchene is better than Eberle so NYI should be all over him

This is why there may be more deals after the expansion draft than before.
