Having Lucic protect our stars was one of the main reasons for the trade.

Yeah, no. That makes Tkachuk look weak. And could well be fine material.
And no, that wasn’t one of the main reasons for the trade. The trade was all about getting rid of Neal. Treliving would have done it for almost any other player. Lucic was just the best he could do.
