On Sunday, at 8 a.m. MT, 30 NHL teams’ protection lists will be revealed to the Vegas Golden Knights, and to everyone else, as well.
But since lists were submitted at 3 p.m. MT today, details have been leaking out. As it stands, we know just who the Flames have decided to protect, and there are absolutely no surprises on the list.
Via Eric Francis, the Flames opted to protect seven forwards, three defencemen, and one goalie:
- Johnny Gaudreau
- Sean Monahan
- Mikael Backlund
- Michael Frolik
- Sam Bennett
- Micheal Ferland
- Curtis Lazar
- Mark Giordano
- T.
