Interesting take on this is I read that LA was happy with just a draft pick in return. They were thinking they could just buy out Brule is he didn't pass his pyhsical but the CBA does not allow you to buy out an injured player. The Oilers didn't want to give up just a draft pick, they needed to dump some salary too so insisted on adding another player to the deal (Fraser).
Welcome to the wacky world of the salary cap.
