That is not the issue though. Its all about cap space and as you have clearly laid out, it really does little to help them in that area moving forward.
Just an albatross of a contract vs return. Maybe the worst in hockey and will continue to affect the team for at least 4 years.

With the expansion draft it's more than that.
You can buy him out and get him off the roster. To say he can't be bought out is wrong.
And it does save some cap ...
And at least four years? There is less than four years left now, are you speaking of residual trauma from the contract that rolls into the next season with Lucic gone? Or do see them extending him?
