This is a very bad deal for the Oilers. There's no cap problem for the Oilers when Kane returns. They're right on the edge of the cap depending how many call ups they have. When they have extra call ups they are over the cap but don't accrue cap space with Kane on LTIR. When they send the right guys down they're under the cap and are accruing cap space. When Kane is back they can send an extra forward to Bakersfield and actually use Kane, so they're in a much better cap situation when he is back. Wahlstrom is a major downgrade from Kane, guys like him are very easily replaceable. If you took out the 1st round pick the Oilers would still say no to this.
