All of a sudden Milan Lucic is some special asset that would be difficult to pry out of Edmonton 15 games into the season? They’ve been begging for someone to take him and talk for so long was they’d have to pay a 1st (like Toronto did to clear one year of Marleau) or Puljujarvi. They’d still be willing to take Neal for Lucic 1 for 1 15 games into the season if Neal looks like 2018-19 Neal.
