Byron is still a pretty decent player and he fits our team playstyle better than the giga washed up milan lucic

Lucic is not worth his current contract (just like Byron isn't) but Flames definitely are not retaining on Lucic to get another overpaid 4th liner

While I like Byron, with that kind of retention $ I'm fine just holding Lucic at $5.25 rather than Byron at 3.4 + Lucic's 2.5M. Lucic seems to fill some sort of role on the fourth line and I'm not sure if there's a good spot for Byron.

That his advanced analytics say he's better than just an overpaid bottom 6pker. He plays 14 minutes a night and his analytics say he should play more. He's a 4th liner because Montreal has so much depth.

Can I not make a similar argument for Lucic? Just an enforcer instead of a PKer.

Lucic was better defensively at EV

He also had a better GAR and WAR

Those are actually better than what I was expecting but you also have to remember that Byron played most of the season with an injury (hence the 29 games played) and it turns out Lucic was actually the better player last year so you've bested me.

I'm aware Byron was injured, my original point is both players are overpaid for what they actually do and both players are on long term deals. Calgary would have no interest in essentially paying Byron 5.9M just to move out half of an expensive contract for a player who still had a positive on-ice impact. Yes Lucic's contract sucks, but as a free agent he would probably have been signed fairly quickly to a deal similar to Ryan Reaves' in Vegas
