I'll reiterate:
On Peter Chiarelli's very first day, at his very first press conference he explicitly stated the Oilers' need for Lucic.
Not 'a player like Lucic' or 'in the mold of Lucic' but literally Milan Lucic, by name.
And now all of a sudden the acquisition cost of Milan Lucic is just money? They'll pay it.
