I don't think anyone is suggesting he isn't a good player...taking victory laps before the contract has even started though is Oilery

Big player who has been injured quit a bit in recent years making 14M from 30-38 doesn't age well IMO.
Lucic was never at that level but he was a 60 point +30 power forward and turned into fouth liner within a couple years. Drai has a lot of miles on him already. If someone wants to bump to tell me
I toada so maybe wait a few years.

If he is a 100+ point player at 34-35 and the Oilers have a cup or two I guess you got me, otherwise nope.
