I think maybe the only positive part of this trade will be the attitude change. Both guys suck. Neal might get a stats bump playing next to McDavid if they go that route but you can say that about literally any person that owns a pair of skates. However, I never felt like people questioned Lucic's effort - he's just not good anymore. On the other hand, Neal lacked a whole lot of give a ####. At least it will be less frustrating to watch Lucic because you know he's trying his best instead of ####ing the dog every night because he's butthurt he doesn't get top line minutes.
I'm really grasping at straws here but whatever.
