Don’t think many elites are taking invites this year.

Shows how few wanted to go.

Good on him for doing so, does not surprise me.

Shows mega respect for him around the league.

Inviting Lucic has a 'farewell tour' vibe to it, and I'm totally on board. Might actually tune to this tourny prior to the final for once. Atta boy Looch!

A little surprised but he brings leadership and maybe he's interested in remaining involved with hockey past his playing days. Guys like him often make for good coaches. I didn't like seeing him on the ice as much as he was played under Sutter but that's not his fault as he seems like a really good guy so I would be happy to see him remain involved in the NHL or Canada hockey post-retirement.

Excited for Weegar. Pulling on the maple leaf is an awesome moment and will give him even more confidence.

Lucic has a role to play with some team this year. If you can give him limited minutes and plant him in front of the net when on the ice he has a role similar to Perry’s but less mobility. Flames overall aren’t fast and they gave him too much time. On a deep team with more skill where they don’t need too much fourth line contribution he’d do fine. I could see a return to Boston or even NY taking him. He wouldn’t work for most teams though.

Probably Lucic and Toffoli talked to each other and decided it’d be a fun trip together. They’re buds.

Looch definitely has 'coach face'. I can definitely picture him behind a bench soon.

After Sutter himself, I think Lucic represents what the team needs to move away from, more than any other player. That may be unfair to Lucic, but perception is what it is.
