Typical Oiler fan. Why would Chicago do that you dummy?

Oiler fans still have to figure out this cap thing either. If they made this trade even at 50% retained Kane costs $5.5 mil and they ship out $5.75....but they are down to 10 forwards rather than 11? So instead of $300k to resign McLeod now they would have $550k and need to resign McLeod and add another player. Even at league min they are in a bigger hole to get to 12 forwards and just moved the 2 players that are the most likely candidates to move out to fix the cap.
Even if they dump Ryan they would need to replace him.
18 years they still haven't figured it out.
This on top of why would Chicago not go for a better return elsewhere?
