You have at least 3 players here that are already protected by being scale players. Scale players are exempt.

That is correct - Players with 4+ years experience (non-SCD contracts) are the only players that need to be protected (up to 8 skaters and goalie). All Year 1-3 NHL players, RFA/UFA players rights and prospects are EXEMPT thus don't need to be protected.

P. Message sent regarding your contract extension question below this message too BTW.
