So paying Reaves the same amount of money over 3 years as paying Lucic for 1 is a kind of a huge chasm. I mean, 5.25 or 1.83....hmm...
It's a difference for sure.

But when you're lamenting $5.5M for a fourth line forward when they were prepared to pay another fourth liner around $3M for one less year than what Lucic has left it shrinks quite a bit.

5.5 - .75 for replacement

vs

5.5 - 3

The first is 7 times the value. The second 1.75 times the value.
