All first- and second-year professionals, as well as all unsigned draft choices, will be exempt from selection (and will not be counted toward their club's applicable protection limits). Player Exposure Requirements All Clubs must meet the following minimum requirements regarding players exposed for selection in the Expansion Draft: i) One defenseman who is a) under contract in 2017-18 and b) played in 40 or more NHL games the prior season OR played in 70 or more NHL games in the prior two seasons. ii) Two forwards who are a) under contract in 2017-18 and b) played in 40 or more NHL games the prior season OR played in 70 or more NHL games in the prior two seasons. iii) One goaltender who is under contract in 2017-18 or will be a restricted free agent at the expiration of his current contract immediately prior to 2017-18. If the club elects to make a restricted free agent goaltender available in order to meet this requirement, that goaltender must have received his qualifying offer prior to the submission of the club's protected list. Players with potential career-ending injuries who have missed more than the previous 60 consecutive games (or who otherwise have been confirmed to have a career-threatening injury) may not be used to satisfy a club's player exposure requirements, unless approval is received from the NHL. Such players also may be deemed exempt from selection by the League. Regulations Relating to Expansion Franchise The Las Vegas franchise must select one player from each presently existing club for a total of 30 players (not including additional players who may be acquired as the result of violations of the Expansion Draft rules). The Las Vegas franchise must select the following number of players at each position: 14 forwards, nine defensemen and three goaltenders. The Las Vegas franchise must select a minimum of 20 players who are under contract for the 2017-18 season. The Las Vegas franchise must select players with an aggregate Expansion Draft value that is between 60-100% of the prior season's upper limit for the salary cap. The Las Vegas franchise may not buy out any of the players selected in the Expansion Draft earlier than the summer following its first season. The 30 NHL Clubs must submit their Protection List by 5:00 P.M. ET on Saturday, June 17, 2017. The Las Vegas team must submit their Expansion Draft Selections by 5:00 P.M. ET on June 20 and the announcement of their selections will be released on made on June 21.  Expansion Draft Tool: http://www.generalfanager.com/teams/expansion     Keywords: ahl, anaheim ducks, arizona coyotes, boston bruins, buffalo sabres, calgary flames, carolina hurricanes, chicago blackhawks, coach hockey, coaching hockey, college hockey, colorado avalanche, columbus blue jackets, dallas stars, detroit red wings, echl, edmonton oilers, florida panthers, hockey, hockey arena, hockey arenas, hockey canada, hockey coach, hockey coaching, hockey official, hockey officiating, hockey referee, hockey refereeing, ice hockey, los angeles kings, minnesota wild, montreal canadiens, nashville predators, ncaa, ncaa hockey, new jersey devils, new york islanders, new york rangers, nhl, official, officiate hockey, officiating hockey, ohl, ottawa senators, philadelphia flyers, pittsburgh penguins, qmjhl, recreation, referee, referee hockey, refereeing hockey, san jose sharks, sports, sports arena, sports arenas, st louis blues, tampa bay lightning, toronto maple leafs, usa hockey, vancouver canucks, washington capitals, whl, winnipeg jets, junior hockey, minor league hockey
