And I’m glad Lucic has a contract that provides little to no buyout relief. Buying out Brouwer is a part of this whole mess.

Oh I am very aware of the issue thanks, but I keep reading how Lucic will waive so he can be exposed and Seattle will grab him so he can be close to Vancouver. (Which is really odd logic on its own)

Im merely pointing out that even if he does waive to be exposed...there is no chance he would be picked.

As for your last sentence...what?

You prefer to be locked in to a horribly flawed contract on a really bad hockey player with no realistic way out?

Why?
