You could also argue that Hamonic was a huge over pay.
I actually have the Hamonic deal second on your list behind the Neal signing. Also, I love Lucic as a player, but no way trading a disastrous contract for another disastrous contract makes up for the first one.

Imagine if we would have had another $6mil forward that plays like one on this team last playoffs? That Neal signing (and subsequent Lucic trade) was a crippler to that core build.
