Edmonton got a 20-goal* scorer and a cheaper buyout, which was the point. The fact that Lucic served out his contract was a negative, not a positive. He wasn't worth more than league minimum at any time while in Calgary.
The 4.1M in cap savings Edmonton got went towards signing Zach Hyman. This trade was a HUGE win for Edmonton.
