He's still owed $10,000,000 on his contract, but the oilers are paying $2,250,000 of that ($750,000 x 3)

Retained salary trades are percentage based to account for front/back loaded contracts, the Oilers retained 12.5%. That means with $10,000,000 remaining the Oilers are only paying $1,250,000 in actual dollars.
