I’ve watched my fair share of Oiler games this year and anyone that still thinks the Oilers won the Lucic trade is certifiably insane.

Not only is Lucic the vastly superior player but we got the draft pick AND with salary retention James Neal is costing the Oilers $1.25M/year more than Lucic is costing the Flames.

Absolutely outstanding. You have to be a total bonehead, a huge Oiler homer in denial, or straight up have no idea what you’re talking about to think otherwise.
