On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Zach Zeman joins us to look at the list of players the Wild are protecting in the Seattle Expansion Draft. We look at whether or not there were any surprises on the Wild's list and who among the unprotected players such as Carson Soucy, Kaapo Kahkonen, Victor Rask or Nick Bjugstad might end up being selected. We look at why protecting Cam Talbot was the only option for the Wild after his strong playoff series against Vegas. We finish the episode by looking at the rest of the NHL's protected list and discuss big surprises left unprotected, including a massive list of Tampa Bay Lightning players who will be available in Wednesday's expansion draft.
