Treliving didn't improve the flames expansion position, he potentially worsened it and we hope that there is a handshake deal that doesn't damage the organization.
Best case scenario Lucic's contract has the same impact on the expansion draft as Neal's would have.

No he looked at a laundry list of items
- what player would be a better fit on our third line?
- what player would be a better fit in the room?
- what player will save the team actual cash?
- Can we get a kicker from Edmonton to cover salary?
- What about a clause to get a pick?
Ok all that looks good.
Now that damn expansion thing.
Hey Loooch what say you agree to waive and we can get this done?
Sure thing Tre
Done.
