Not to defend Lucic, the Flames should have bought Neal out or just waited it out longer, retained salary ect.
The Flames only prayer is that Lucic's actual money is mostly paid. Hopefully there is a team looking to hit the cap floor at some point.

I think everyone realizes this was what needed to be done but for some inexplicable reason it didn't happen. It's kind of ironic that the main reason the trade happened was that Peters and Neal couldn't co-exist together with the Flames and a mere 28 games later neither man is a part of the Flames organization.
