I imagine it is an issue about the actual cash owed to Kesler. Basically, Vegas was paying money to the Ducks as part of the trade, but doing it in a way that doesn't technically violate the CBA.
Trouble is, there's never just one technicality. They're like land mines. The Knights sidestepped one, but landed on another and went boom. They'd have been wiser to stay out of the minefield in the first place.
