I don't for a second think Tre wanted Lucic and was going to target him at all costs.
The entire NHL knew Neals time in Calgary was done. When you spend the season trying to justify the signing by saying "just wait until the playoffs" and he goes and gets himself benched in the playoffs is a pretty clear sign where he stood in the organization. Neals value sunk so low last year that Lucic was the BEST they could get for him. Let that sink in, Neal was so worthless that Lucic was the best option they had.
