Expansion Draft[edit]
The 1972–73 NHL season saw the entrance of a 15th and 16th team to the league, the New York Islanders and Atlanta Flames. Each team selected twenty-one (two goaltenders and nineteen skaters) players from across the league, for a total of 42 selections.
The existing teams could protect up to two goalies and fifteen skaters. First-year pros were exempt. The existing teams could lose only a maximum of three players, including a maximum of one goaltender. The California Golden Seals, Montreal Canadiens, Philadelphia Flyers and St. Louis Blues could exempt themselves from losing a goaltender because they had each lost a goalie in the 1970 Expansion Draft; however, the Canadiens and Blues chose to expose a goalie.[1]
