It’s been mentioned a lot, but Looch is set to get paid under a million bucks this year. If the Flames really had to move him they could do it. It probably wouldn’t cost more than a mid round pick too. Some insider’s have even mentioned he might return something in a trade.
That's correct. To a non-cap team that wants to hit the floor as cheap as possible he has value.

To a team with cap issues, he has huge negative value.

Lucic to Boston only makes sense if they send cap back. Now, if for some reason Boston covets him and sends back a decent player with a cap hit, maybe it can work for us.
