He is still owed $3 million in salary for this season plus he gets $4M, $5M, and $4M for the final three years of the deal (in combined bonuses and salary), which will all be paid by the Flames (except for the retained percentage).
If the Flames keep him for the rest of the contract, he'll be paid $16 million in real dollars against a total cap hit of $24 million (minus whatever percentage the Oilers retain).
Neal is set to be paid $23 million over the next four seasons with the same total cap hit.

Normally I would just defer to you on these things but I think you're misreading capfriendly.
Or maybe there is a gas leak here and I should get it inspected.
I'm looking at capfriendly and it says his salary over the next 4 years is:
