Not a huge fan of adding Lucic and his contract, especially having spent the last few years mocking the Oilers for it.
But... I don't look at it from a "Treliving traded for a worse contract" perspective. He's smarter than that. I think of how serious he was about getting rid of Neal. He wanted him gone, needed him off the team, so badly that he traded him for Lucic. Let that sink in. Getting rid of Neal was worth adding Lucic.
