			As risky as Neal is, Lucic is 10 times riskier. 
 
Neal might bounce Bach. Lucic has no chance, his physical skills have long since abandoned hm.

			No surprise if Panarin signs with NYI. If I remember correctly there were discussions as long ago as last 1st July that he would go to NY because his girlfriend is a model, and she would get more exposure in NY than in Florida. He is going to make a shed load of cash either way, so why not go where it helps them both.

Not sure how to embed tweets but Darren Haynes retweeted something from an Avalanche beat writer saying they are in on him. Maybe someone can embed it here? From Ryan S. Clark, and he’s verified.

Can’t Lucic waive his NMC for the expansion draft?  Why wouldn’t he?  He wouldn’t be selected any way so unless it’s not something he can waive, I don’t get why this is always mentioned as such a big deal.

Even if he can waive it, it doesn't mean he would, so the big deal is the team has to use one of their protection "slots" on him instead of someone else.  But, as was mentioned above, this probably is only the Oilers problem, as him being traded means he'd have already waived his NMC.
 
Regardless, I'd much, much, much have another year of Neal maybe bouncing back than Lucic.  Would have to be a hell of a sweetener.

			Gonna be interesting to see where Ferland goes. If his concussion issues are no longer a problem(probably are ) I’d love to see him back but doubt he’s coming. Flames can’t afford him.

Would make sense for the Oilers to be in hard on Gustav Nyquist.  Need to add a winger who can play In their top 6. Initially thought too expensive, Sekera buyout gives them space to pursue.  Likely multiple teams pursuing him.
