If Klefbom misses the whole season, I'm pretty sure he doesn't need to be protected.
Minimum Exposure Requirements
Teams must expose a minimum number of players that meet the following criteria for selection in the upcoming Expansion Draft:
- under contract in 2021-22, AND
- played in 40 or more NHL games last season, OR
- played in 70 or more NHL games in the last two seasons
Klefbom played 62 games in 2019-20, as long as he plays 7 or fewer games in 2020-21 he won't meet the exposure requirements. Or am I missing something?
