I think compliance buyouts due to the pandemic and ensuing flat cap will make the whole thing disappear.

The sad thing is I don’t mind Lucic on the team, but not at his current cap hit.

I didn’t mind the trade and I hated the Neal signing at the time.

Why sign a slow, 30yo left shot winger to 5 years at nearly $6mill who is a career 2nd liner?

Just asking for trouble.

Brouwer taught Tre nothing..
