This is true, but my concern is that there will likely be another expansion draft in another two or three years which will almost certainly hurt the Flames much more than this one. No longer will Tkachuk and Jankowski be exempt, and I would expect that the Flames would by that time also have four defensemen that they would be anxious to protect.
