I suppose the point is to show that although Lucic's contract is objectively bad, it is not some unprecedented albatross.
Lucic, Age: 31, $5,250,000 Contract lasts until 2023.

I think all of the second category ones are going to look really really bad soon. I guess the one good thing about the RFA price increases is that these types of long term/big money contracts for UFAs are going to be out of the question for a lot of teams.
