I always wanted the sweetener to be Puljujarvi and I think the only way a Puljujarvi + Lucic for Neal trade would happen would have been without the 12.5 retention on Lucic for one and before his bonus payment of 3 mill was paid out. For those two reasons I think it’s probably a good bet to pass but I guess we’ll never truly know the different things that were discussed before the finished product. I still like our chances more of this trade working in our favour and the key to that is in the 12.5 retention and the conditions of receiving the 3rd or not.
I for one am hoping we don’t receive the 3rd due to the fact of a solid year of output from Lucic which I think is possible.
