Even if real, it's not actually a thing.
‘Evaluating possible Lucic extension’? Every team does that with every player in a contract year. If a GM isn't asking himself and his staff, ‘Do we want to re-sign this guy?’ he's not doing his job. Sometimes the answer is yes, sometimes it's no. Most times it depends on the price.
The story specifically says there have been no negotiations. So all we can possibly have here is a management team asking themselves the questions they are supposed to ask.
Honestly, this is a nothingburger soused in weaksauce. If the headline had been, ‘Flames may or may not want to re-sign Lucic’, nobody would read it; in fact, the story would probably have been spiked. But if you phrase it in a clickbait-y way, you get people arguing over a non-story.
