Let's put aside for the moment how you're going to work a #1 LW into the squad with Tatar and Drouin there already. Let's also leave for another day whether you want to expend so many futures for Bertuzzi, and whether that would even be enough. (Personally, I can't see Yzerman doing this even in a moment of madness.)
Exchanging Bertuzzi for Byron leaves you with 8 forwards qualifying you for the expansion draft: Anderson, Bertuzzi, Drouin, Evans, Gallagher, Kotkaniemi, Lehkonen and Toffoli. Since you have to present two such forwards to Seattle, it follows that either (1) you have to expose two of that list, or (2) you have to go out and get at least one other qualifying forward.
