Gentleman's agreement? Meh. I don't doubt that there was a discussion about it when Lucic was acquired. But gentleman's agreements mean SFA unless it's written and signed on paper. A notable example of such an agreement biting the Flames' in the ass was Iggy's so-called gentleman's agreement. Didn't quite work out the way we had hoped.
So while Lucic may have agreed to such an agreement in a gentlemanly fashion, I won't rest easy until I actually see his name on the official league document stating he is unprotected. As a player with a full NMC he holds the cards entirely in his hands and unfortunately the fate of the team along with it. I'd be lying if it didn't make me feel a bit nervous. But by all accounts he's a good dude so hopefully my fears are unfounded.
