Just a stupid stupid miss use of resources.
Dumb Dumb stupid move.

uhh, ok, that's bad. I guess this is it for big moves. With zero cap space that 1st rounder was our piece to try to open space to fill holes.

FWIW, I'm not going to lose a minute of sleep over the loss of that draft pick. I wonder a little about the opportunity cost using it for Henrique over other options, but if the season ended today and ignoring all the movement based on playoff position, that's a 25th overall pick. There's a decent chance that Henrique plays more games for the Oilers than that player plays in the NHL.

I don't get what happened here. Reporters saying we were trying to push Calgary to take a player to get Tanev and Calgary didn't want to take on salary, but clearly the Lames were willing to retain 50% to move Tanev. Henrique has more cap hit than Tanev, and we bent around to get 75% retained for him by giving up some extra assets to Tampa to get the extra 25%.
We didn't have to force a player on the Ducks to do this (more likely we could have, unlike a trade with the Lames).
Why did we insist on trying to make Calgary take cap to get Tanev? Yet with the Ducks, who have loads of cap space, we bend around and give up our 1st so we don't have to unload any cap space?
Maybe the Ducks GM was the one that presented this whole retain idea to Holland to shake us down for a 1st? Perhaps the 75% option using a 3rd team never entered the conversation with the Lames.
I'd 100% do a good prospect + 1st to the Lames for Tanev with the same 75% retain deal over this trade.
