If we assume the Flames will protect: Gaudreau, Tkachuk, Monahan, Lindholm, Backlund, Mangiapane, and Dube up front; Hanifin, Andersson, and Tanev on D; and Markstrom in goal; that would leave Lucic and Giordano to meet the skater exposure requirement and Parsons to meet the goalie requirement.
The Flames need to sign (or otherwise acquire) a qualifying forward to a contract for 2021-22 prior to the expansion draft in order to be compliant.

Has Parsons played enough games to be eligible?
