The mistake was signing Neal.
Trading for Lucic has proved to be net positive across a few dimensions.
He gets a big X for the Neal decision.
He gets a bit of a credit back for the Lucic one.
Net: The entirety of it still not good. But I don't think he Lucic trade in and of itself is a x against him. He made a really bad situation slightly less bad.
