[Rumor] Milan Lucic to Edmonton?

[ericdaoust]

Sucks for Hall but he carries some of the stink of the bad years. It's not his fault and he wasn't hurting the team at all but he was there.

Signing Lucic to a long term deal is bad enough. Doing it to make Hall expendable? Well, let's just say thankfully the Oilers always gonna Oiler. When Lucic signs a big money long term deal, I can see it looking Dustin Brown bad within 2 years.

Gonna be hilarious when Lucic's wife demands that they leave Edmonton next summer.

[Shift Disturber]

I think a Lucic signing spells the end of the line for Hall with the Oilers, which makes me very sad. Just my opinion but it won't surprise me at all.

If this is true then I think you need to switch teams. They will have to find one hell of a d-man to make up for swapping out Hall for Lucic.

Always room for you on the Flames bandwagon!

Oilers could move Lander for Crosby and haters would find a way that it is a stupid move for a stupid team.

Every young kid is going to be wearing Oiler jerseys soon, similar to the Pittsburgh effect from the recent past

LOL! How true. Haters gonna hate and the Oilers have their fair share of haters out there.

I think if they can keep it under $6 (can they?) it will be good. I don't see the term being below six years though. My guess is 6x$6.5=$39million

And I don't think Hall is going anywhere. RNH and Yakupov almost certainly. Eberle possibly.

I just want to reiterate this. Under no circumstances are they going to trade Hall. Wait, what?

[tomastop]

It's pretty safe to assume now, he is going to sign with Oilers on Friday, right?

I'd tend to think that with the Hall vacancy it will happen.

Oilers fans must love terrible contracts. I heard the Flames were in the running for Lucic and that felt like a punch to the gut. I couldn't imagine how terrible I'd feel if the Flames had traded like Gaudreau to make space for Lucic.

He's going to Dustin Brown the shit out of his next contract, and fast.

I love the idea of Dustin Brown as a verb.

Yep, pretty much as I figured.

Are Oiler fans signing the players to these contracts? The idea that Oiler fans have enjoyed much of anything to do with the Oilers the past decade is moronic.

If you're excited for Lucic, you already know the contract he's signing. His demands are pretty well documented, and the amount of interest in him dictates he can name his price. So if you love the Lucic signing, that means you love the Lucic bad contract.
