Essentially Setoguchi and a little retained salary for a season (Bourque's) for a first or second round pick, or high end D prospect, + a 3rd or 4th round pick. That's a hell of a return on Seto.

And Bourque never puts on a Calgary Flames jersey.
Teams don't give up 1st round picks to unload bad contracts. It simply doesn't happen. I realize Feaster and a lot of fans think that this was once a possibility but GM's have shown absolutely no appetite for this kind of thing.
