He's now just owed $1M between now and the end of this contract. If he retires, he forgoes the $1M in salary that he's contractually owed to earn throughout the season...he's not retiring though, so there's no point in discussing it. I'd also be somewhat surprised if he retires after this coming season as well. I'd bet he gets another year with somewhere he wants to be on a cheap salary (Boston? Calgary?)

They wouldn’t, but there are legal grounds for the Flames to insist on all or a portion of the signing bonus back if Lucic doesn’t play out the season due to retirement.
