Maybe Murray says to Mcphee, "we can buy out Bieksa, and we can trade Vatanen, then use a 7-3-1 and you get to pick one of our depth forwards, or we can save ourselves the buy out and just trade you Vatanen for a fair return"
Bieksa buyout on a 35+ contract gives zero cap relief to a cap strapped Ducks team. I don't see how Vegas comes out looking better here. I would try and force the Ducks to move 2 of their Dmen and good luck getting fair market value.

It will be extremely interesting to see what deal is worked out between the teams
