Kyrou will be protected in the Exp draft. Barbashev, Blais, MacEachern, Sanford will be left unprotected before him. Underpaid Pietrangelo by 500k minimum, and overpaid Binnington by about 1.5mil. He's not going to get that big of a raise unless he take them deep in the playoffs again.
This team is going to look quite different in the next 2 years. And it's not going to be be holding onto guys. It's going to have draft picks that ascend to the main roster and either sink or swim.
For what it's worth, I think Seattle takes Blais, Barbie, Dunn, or if we toss in a sweetener, possibly even Faulk.
