They allow each team to either protect seven forwards , three defencemen , and one goaltender or one goaltender and eight skaters regardless of positionTeams must submit their list of protected players by June 17 , 2017 , and they must expose at least two forwards and one defenceman that have played at least 40 games in the 201617 season or more than 70 games in the 201516 and 201617 seasons combined and must still be contracted for the 201718 season . The exposed goaltender must either be under contract for the 201718 season or will become a Restricted Free Agent in 2017 . So Nash , Staal , Girardi , Lundqvist , would need to be protected . <| sep |> But its new feature now . Every 5 daemon can increase 5 % or 7 . 5 % if same type and at least they need 4 5 daemon to bond with their current team . More thing , I ' m not sure about how hard the last battle was . So I do wonder about they can pass it or not . need confirm Ranking daemon now is very hard and u said they can get one or even 2 ? My team right now did half of chapter 2 , 5 k rank . From the last event to get 3 copies need around 2030 tonics and tower event is not like CQ event . But its the past , thing now even harder .
