What are the Flames going to do with Lucic if he continues to look like a below replacement level player?

The amount of mental gymnastics going on in this thread is ludicrous. The Oilers got the better player and the contract that was more buyout friendly. They clearly fleeced the Flames on this trade and this is the only place where you will find a contrary opinion. At least the Flames will have a 3rd round pick coming and I suppose if they can nail that pick it's the only hope of salvaging the trade.
