[Friedman] There is word this afternoon that Vancouver will buy out Oliver Ekman-Larsson. He will be an unrestricted free agent.

OEL was traded out of AZ on July 23, 2021 (12% retained) with Conor Garland for Antoine Roussel, Jay Beagle, Loui Eriksson, 2021 1st round pick (Dylan Guenther), 2022 2nd round pick (Hunter Haight), 2023 7th round pick.
Absolute highway robbery with what we got out of that trade in hindsight.
Edit: as a result of the buy out, while minimal, he will count against our cap through the end of the 2030-31 season
