That being the case, Lucic might actually be attractive to them. His cap hit for the next 2 years is $5.75M, but his actual salary is only $5M, then $4M.
If the Flames retained a million or two, they might be willing to take him instead of Dube.
Monahan, Lucic $2M retained, Zary, 1st (top 3 protected), and a 2nd in 2023

I don't see Lucic waiving his NMC to go to Buffalo. Especially when Eichel is coming the other way and the Flames might actually make some noise.
Even Monahan has a 10 team no trade list and I imagine Buffalo is on that.
