I can get the trade if you isolate the on ice stuff - which is all this post is meant to do.
What makes this trade horrible is the cap / buy out implcations. Flames should have never let their provincial rivals off the hook by giving them a contract that you can buy out instead of Lucics buyout proof contract. And they let them off the hook by getting them out from the NMC in the expansion draft.
That is what makes the trade horrible.
