Assuming the Flames doesn't make major moves involving important players this season, the "must protect" list for me would be:
Markstrom
Andersson - Hanafin - Tanev
Gaudreau - Monahan - Tkachuk
Lindholm - Dube - Mangiapanne
That's it. And there are expansion draft exposure requirements where teams have to expose 1D and 2F who will be still under contract after the 20-21 season. Gio/Lucic/Backlund are prime candidates for this.
