Different attempt to move Lucic

I’m generally against using picks and prospects to get out of the Lucic contract but this option interests me. Wennberg could realistically bounce back and be worth his cap hit, he also may not, in theory getting an early second round pick in a draft they have almost no picks, a strong prospect in Yamamoto, and protection from their risk in giving up Wennberg, that could very well make it worth it for them. I make the money equal so that they aren’t spending any more towards the cap.

If Wennberg doesn’t pan out, the Oilers bought 4mil in cap space with a prospect who while good, is not a sure thing by any means as Wennberg can be bought out much easier.

Any thoughts?
