The Barons merged with the North Stars. The team was allowed to keep a certain number of players from both teams. The five poorest teams were allowed to pick an unprotected player from these teams. One forfeited its pick but got extra pick in amateur draft, two others declined to pick a player. So this draft actually ended up only having two players chosen. Might just be easier to have Minnesota absorb the players and deal with releasing them in the game to get under roster/organization/financial limits.
