The fact the Flames let him go has me hopeful that they are freeing up roster spots for the AHL players, who are very deserving.
The “deterrent” thing is a line the fan base was being sold. No doubt Lucic is tough as nails, but the first thing that comes to mind is Trouba laying those hits last year. Having Lucic in the lineup did not deter anything, and his fighting ability was useless, still can’t figure out why Looch never went after Trouba.
