How much of a market is there for Milan Lucic at 3 million for 4 more years + the 8th overall pick in the 2019 draft?
You might get a rebuilding team to take that. But I wouldn't expect more than an early 2nd and a middling prospect. 4 years is a long time.
Why would we retain 3m for the next 4 years AND throw a 8th overall pick in the trash for only 3m of cap relief?
That would be beyond stupid, like Chia level bad.
Not true at all...If this trade happened, it means you could expose him in an expansion draft since he already waived his NMC, FWIW.
Would you trade the 8th with lucic if you didn't retain a cent, but only got back a late 2nd?
Yeah, we'd be better off keeping him for another year at that price.Why would we retain 3m for the next 4 years AND throw a 8th overall pick in the trash for only 3m of cap relief?

Fact is, if e waives for a trade, he will ask the receiving team in ANY DEAL to honor his NMC (keep it as is).
Therefore he'd still need to be protected. Lcic won't take the risk of being sent down to the AHL as soon as he gets traded.

This ^I would rather live with the dead cap from a Lucic buyout than do that.
Is that true? I know he was dealt before it kicked in, but Subban's NMC wasn't honoured by Nashville.

If you put up the money the Oiliers owner would go for itI would rather live with the dead cap from a Lucic buyout than do that.
Because he was traded BEFORE his NMC kicked in, Therefore, the reeiving team doesn't have to honour it.Is that true? I know he was dealt before it kicked in, but Subban's NMC wasn't honoured by Nashville.
