I don't think this makes sense. Brad Treliving may have thought he was getting the better player, but realized the position Ken Holland was in and taken the cap relief and the conditional 3rd as well.
Look, I'm not saying Milan Lucic is a good player. I'm just saying there are reasons to believe he might actually be a better player than James Neal.
