Sad but true. Hard to build a winner on the free market.

He's a complementary player looking for cornerstone player money. He's a nice to have for sure but I'm more interested in this team building from within like the great teams do.

Here is an oldie from the last time (2011?) Lucic was rumoured to be in Calgary

[Bingo Jr.]

Please no lucic, we'd overpay him for sure and we don't have room for that. If we get him for a decent price and short term I'm in, but that probably won't happen

[dissentowner]

I hope Vancouver gives him 7 years at 8M per

[TurdFerguson]

I'd love to see a lucic-ferland duo terrorize the Oilers and Canucks all season.

Don't want any part of the contract he's likely to receive though.

You want to pay him $6m x 4 years.

6 x 6 is probably worth it.

7 x 7 is what it'll probably take to get him.

6.5x3?

BT is trying to cause a lot of confusion before tomorrow's draft. Brilliant strategy!

Basically trying to get Chiarelli and Benning to buckle at the knees while both of them ride backwards in ballet skirts on a penny-farthing into tomorrow's draft.

Like Bishop Inwould go 4 years with Lucic. Theoretically having Bishop, Lucic, and Brodie expire at the same time will free up a lot of cap space to give Brodie his $7-8M per contract.

We would have to shed money but 4 years $30M for Bishop and 4 years $25M for Lucic

Surprised to find I'm in the minority here, but i will be thrilled if we sign this guy on jul 01.

Add Bouma to that line and it would be ridiculous

Don't get me wrong, I'd be happy too if it's not a 6-8 year deal

[djsFlames]

Sure, if he'll sign for under 6mil per.
The only reason I could see him wanting to sign here for a discount is being close to home and because he could potentially be playing top line minutes.

Lucic and Ferland could terrorize the opposition while Bouma would strike fear into the boards and his own knees.

[Gaskal]

I am ok with 6 or under and 5 years or under. Could work if we get Reimer instead of one of the highly paid #1s.


Pretty sure he's just baiting both No Good teams though.

[Street Pharmacist]

I'll be a happy man if the flames sign no one over $2.5M.

[ComixZone]

I'm into this.

Bishop, Lucic, Puljujarvi?

Bring 'em all in. Rebuild over, Stanley Cup contender time is upon us.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Lucic = BIG!

Big = GOOD!
