Exactly..
If SJ Would conceivably retain 4.5M, then they would recieve a lot more bidders. And chances are that nearly any other team would be able to offer better chips than Edmonton.
Anything of real value is already playing on the Oilers roster, and they're not going to trade anything that hurts the current team
So you're left with a couple B prospects and a late 1st .. I seriously doubt the sharks take their scraps in order to continue paying 40% of his salary for years
They'll find better value from virtually any other trade partner
