OEL (7.7M effective salary going forward) + random 1.5M fourth line plug that can play up the lineup and provide toughness = 9.2M
Lucic (2.9M effective salary) + Hanifin (4.95M) = 7.85M
The Coyotes could save roughly 1.5M in a deal where the centre piece deal is OEL, Hanifin and prospects/picks.

Arizona has huge cap problems.
They need to get rid of cap, not just cash.
