Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Lucic's agent structured his deal in a way that most of the money was in signing bonuses making it "buy-out proof"
I don't exactly know how that works, I assume the real dollar savings are larger but the penalty is higher or something? but thats what i've heard.
either way, pretty funny that edmonton won't be able to buy that one out, and cant buy out russel because he actually will be a contributor on that blueline
