I'm not a fan of the contract due to the years, but I don't see it as nearly as bad as a couple of Leafs got rid of like Phaneuf and Clarkson.
Leafs did have to take back pretty significant contracts to get rid of those guys, they just buried them in the AHL/IR for the most part though
I don't think Zaitsev's contract will be a huge problem to unload, but I think they'll need to take back some salary (even if it is dead salary)
Could see them getting a pick on top of that, just dont think it will be straight up
