I highly doubt there was no attempt by Holland to trade any of the contracts away, so I don't know why they think it will be some big lopsided slam-dunk trade that pushes the oilers over the top.

This is all after paying to move Kassian, giving Keith a fake job so he retires, and abusing LTIR with Smith
