Capfriendly might have checked but prior to July 1st that means Brodie would still have his NMC since the contract won't turn over until after July 1.

Edit: Looks like this was clarified for Vegas and Brodie will not have to be protected. Honestly though will be interesting to see if there is any grey area here.

It was reported at the time of the trade that the NMC didn't cover the expansion draft. I'll try and find it.
