Everyone wants to blame the Feaster guys (Gaudreau and Monaghan) but they are more often than not our best players. Lucic is on pace for zero goals this year and it is hard to envision him being paid less than a million dollars a goal by the end of the year and this is likely going to be his greatest year as a Flame.

That offside play by Tkachuk is emblematic of his whole night so far

They didn’t bring him in to score goals
A few would be nice but that’s not his role
Odd to hang this one on him except just to grind a gear

The only thing I can say about tonight is how good Rittich looks when just about every Flame left him out there to die and wither on a shots on net all night long kind of night.
One of the worst games in recent memories.

Complaining about Lucic specifically being overpaid tonight is absolutely bananas when Gaudreau, Monahan, Lindholm, Backlund, Brodie, Giordano, Hanifin, and Tkachuk have all been worse and are collectively being paid $45 million for their poor play

Yes, Lucic is overpayed but he was not brought in to score. He was brought in for his size and physical presence. Something that many people thought the Flames lacked. Him scoring would just be a bonus.

Don’t be ridiculous, the Oilers were the only team willing to take Neal off the Flames’ hands after he forced them to trade him by refusing to even try for most of the season after it became clear he was not going to be on the top line.
