Sure, but that's kind of a different topic than people freaking out because Flames got Lucic. At this point, the Neal contract wasn't going anywhere unless you swap it for something equally as terrible. And that's what's happening. We can hand wring on Treliving messing up and signing Neal, but why are people freaking out on swapping it for Lucic? I actually think it's a better move than keeping Neal and hoping he rebounds.
