Edmonton is also retaining 50% of the salary.

Makes the Polak price seem even better.

Seems like Edmonton is going to make some big deal moves in the near future.

Pittsburgh paid a higher price than I would have thought but there were reports of other teams being interesting in Schultz too (LA for one). I don't think Schultz will turn into any special but it'll be interesting to see how a long-time, often criticized Oiler performs on an actual team.
