If he gets moved it’s because Treliving is out there looking for someone to take him. That’s without taking salary into consideration. And with no team needing to reach the floor, everything about the salary is working against Calgary. Maybe someone sees a last hurrah kind of uptick but I’m skeptical. One assist in 12 playoff games is hard to explain away.

Nobody is worried about production if you have a wish to add Lucic. It's his room addition, cup history and intimidation.
If you have a team in a division with some scary players and don't have a lot of size on your roster you likely value that more than most.
Is that team out there? Who knows?
But at $3.7M and only $1M actually owing it's certainly more possible than at $5.75M, full salary, and multiple years left on the deal.
