    Default [Rumor] Lucic for Neal deal pending

    Seems to be some smoke on twitter that this is going to happen. Principe just tweeted this but a few others are tweeting it (including Stauffer) that it's going down. I'll put it in a rumor for now until confirmed.

    https://twitter.com/GenePrincipe/sta...99653305528320

    Got a tip trying to 100% verify but I'm being told @NHLFlames have traded James Neal to @EdmontonOilers for @27MilanLucic. May be other players involved. If I'm wrong my apologies to Neal/Lucic and the teams..

    Kyper just tweeted this as well

    https://twitter.com/RealKyper/status...00383869579266

    Milan Lucic days as a @EdmontonOilers are over. With Lucic waving his no move clause it opens up the trade to @NHLFlames. At this point sounding like a 1 for 1 trade for James Neal. @NHL

    If this ends up legit, this could very well end up being a good trade for Edmonton. Neal has scored at least 20G in each of the past 10 years with Calgary being the only exception last season. He would slot in nicely in the top six for Edmonton vs Lucic who is a slug.

    Unless a 1st or Puljujarvi is attached to the deal, this is an insane loss for Calgary.

    I'm just going to assume Puljujarvi is thrown in for now.

    I just read that a conditional 2nd is going with Lucic, but not from a tweeter I am familiar with so I am not going to believe it until I read it from someone more credible.

    Really this is my fault, first for all the s*** talking I've given Oilers fans for trying to defend the signing since day 1, and second for saying on Twitter the other day that I would do the trade if there was a 2nd attached to it lol

    Well, as an Oilers fan, thank you! I didnt think we'd find anyone to bite on Lucic. God bless Kenny Holland!

    If true this is a great deal for the oilers. Even with a conditional 2nd or pulj attached. That Lucic contract has proven to be an absolute anchor.
    Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

    Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO

    Forwards:
    C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund

    Defense:
    B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin

    Goalie:

    Wow... what does Ken Holland have on the Flames management? Must have some sketchy photos in a brown enevelope in a safe somewhere!!

    And since when do cross-province teams make a trade?

    Wow!

    Even if the Oilers have to retain salary and add a conditional pick (as the rumors seem to be saying), Oilers fans are just happy to be rid of him. I didnt expect much more than a bag of pucks for him even after adding to him, so to get a decent player like James Neal comes off like a big win for Holland. He might have just won back a few Oilers fans LOL! Sure Neal had a crap year last year, but he only shot something like 5% for his shooting percentage and last year was the first time in his NHL career he didn't score at least 20 goals. The Oilers needed top six wingers and James Neal can fill that role.

    Today, this feels like a win for Oilers fans and there havent been many of those lately.

    If I recall correctly the first time it was uttered with Chiarelli was the Hall for Larsson deal.
