It already has failed. We’re locked into 4 years of Lucic. There’s no escaping this deal if Lucic continues to slide to the point of being unplayable. Which is what we’ve been mocking the Oilers about for 3 years.
Now we’re paying a position locked bottom six 5.25 million.
At no point in time has anyone wanted Treliving to go out and give a bottom six player $5.25 x 4 so why go out and acquire one just because James Neal has put egg on your face.

Riiiiight ....
But with the deal not happening they have James Neal for four years.
Which of your shopping list do you think he possesses?
speed
skill
vision
playmaking
strength
strategic defending
Is that .5 for 6?
