The fact that this one unreliable stat is being thrown out to suggest the flames didn't get raped is pretty sad.
Lucic is a bad player on the worst contact in the NHL.
Neal is a bad player on a bad contact.
Flames get no tangible bonus to taking on Lucic outside of saving the owners some cash.

Oh no, for sure. Lucic is definitely butter soft. I imagine he'd be lucky if he had 5 legit hits last season. I bet 90% of his hit stats came only when played on home ice.
Flames absolutely got raped. They'll be lost without Neal for sure.
