benning hasn't had this good of season since signing eriksson to fill a whole on the wing, signing markstrom for decent money and trading for sutter - Tumbleweed
Not if they pay him an entire years salary for two months of the season. Cap hit would be high... - 1970vintage
Cap hit isn't calculated by yearly salary, it's actually calculated by daily salary when the player is on the roster
It's why teams can fit an 8 million dollar cap hit player with only 2 million in capspace at the deadline - The 8 million dollar player would count for less than 2 million during the remainder of the season
And it's why IR players unpaid salaries accumulate as savings. They aren't on the roster so that money doesn't count
Ferky would need to be protected, which is what Johnny K is saying and Chompy disagrees with. - 1970vintage
honestly its all speculation anyway. i remember the league has to post a list to clarify because no one actually knew - like rask and vermettes nmc expiring 2 days before the draft lists

Teams were required to protect any contracted players with no move clauses (NMCs) with one of the team's slots for protected players, unless the contract expired on July 1, 2017, in which case the NMC was considered void for the draft.

again: ferlands contract expires in 2023. the draft is is in 2021
the clause changes, but the contract is not expired at the time of the expansion draft. theretohenceforth he is protected

Both are correct in the contract eligibility expansion year and contract in effect statement. What is missing is duration of NMC at time of expansion draft. Technically a player won't be moving until the next season when that NMC is no longer in effect.
Perhaps it will be published to clarify. Either the expansion draft rules have a clause outlining NMC's expiring July 1. Or, Ferland's contract has a clause stating the NMC is waived or not in effect at time of expansion draft.

In the example used above of Rask and Vermette, their NMC's expired on June 15, BEFORE the draft
Not sure if that's a thing anymore, or if by default they are all July 1
There is a chance Ferlands NMC expires days before the draft is held.
Just because they signed for 800k for "the year" - doesn't mean they get the entire 800k
Those players pay are limited in terms of compensation by ELC requirements
They sign early, to get them a year closer to UFA and to burn a year off the ELC so they are eligible for a new contract sooner - RoloTahmasee
I’m fairly certain that the last time Tryamkin signed in Vancouver he received the entire year’s salary for the remainder of the year. As did Rafferty this past year. How else can you explain that his cap hit was $5+m?

they are property right away
and yes, the league posted a list last time. i imagine with there being plenty of nmc's that change, they will provide some clarification
From the Province article regarding Ferland's signing:
The free-agent winger signed a contract with the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday.
The contract is four years at US$3.5 million per season, with a no-movement clause for the first two seasons, then a modified no-trade clause for the final two. Ferland has also reportedly agreed to be exposed to the Seattle expansion draft in 2021.
