According to a report by TSN’s Frank Seravalli, the Flames are expected to ask winger Milan Lucic to waive his no-movement clause in advance of this off-season’s Seattle Kraken expansion draft.
All players in possession of no-move clauses require protection from Seattle unless they choose to waive in advance. Feb. 1 was the first day that teams could request players to waive their NMCs for the upcoming Expansion Draft.
Teams can choose to protect seven forwards, three defensemen, and one goaltender from Seattle; alternatively, they can list any eight skaters to protect, as well as a goalie.
