The NHL just had an expansion draft, adding the Vegas Golden Knights to the league. Prior to the draft, the other NHL teams were required to protect players to ensure they would remain with their current organization. Based on the positions of the players they wanted to protect, each team could keep 9-11 players safe.
That’s literally all I know about it.
But on Twitter, @flippingbats posed the question of who teams might protect in a similar situation in baseball. With the Reds young talent, that’s a difficult question to answer. The Reds would need to consider contracts, age, potential, and proven skill at the Major League level.
