Tippett - "All right we're going to put Bouchard in the lineup. He's no good defensively but he's decent offensively, who do we put him with"
Pinky -"We'll we can put him with Nurse, he is our best defenseman brain"
Tippett - "Hmmm Nurse is terrible defensively, bad positionally in his own end and has the brain power of a rat"
Pinky - "Yoinks, how about Larsson?"
T - "I don't know, he's been off for a couple of years, makes lots of blunders and he plays like he doesn't care half the time"
P-"Sometimes you make my head hurt Brain, how about Barrie, you know two good offensive guys, skating together?"
T - "I'd like to keep my job Pinky"
P- "How about Russell"
T - "You know Pinky I think this blueline is doomed to failure. Get your rest Pinky we have a long night ahead of us"
P - "Why Brain, what are we doing tonight"
T -"Why what we do every night, try to get another number one draft pick"
P- "Yoinks"

So the Oilers have waived Alex Chiasson ($2.1M salary) and healthy scratched James Neal ($5.75M). I assume Chiasson wasn't playing phenomally to deserved be waived.
$2.1M +5.75M = $7.8M on bad players. That's some damned fine salary cap management.

Add another $750,000 on to that total for paying Lucic to play for the Flames and it’s over $8.5 million.
To put that into context, the Flames have pretty a pretty notorious lack of goaltending success themselves, and since Dubnyk's draft (2004) the Flames have drafted 10 goalies:

Seriously, Gregor on Edmonton radio bragging about the fact that McDavid has 15 points in the last 5 games,and 0 shots on goal 5 on 5, during those same 5 games. That’s not something to brag about you moron. Just shows he’s not much more than a powerplay specialist.
