[Rumour] PIT has inquired about Lucic—looking to make hockey trade for grit (maybe w/ Zucker)

[Vinny01]

It kind of blows my mind the Flames can possibly trade Lucic for a player the Pens acquired not long ago for a 1st and I am not sure I really like the deal?

Zucker is someone the Flames targeted before and could add scoring to a team that needs it. Since the Bubble Lucic has really cleaned off all the Oiler stink and been a dependable player.

One of the reasons I would like the trade to go down is to see the Oiler fans meltdown that the Flames got out of the contract however Zucker would have to perform.

Also I think one call from Crosby and Looch waives the NMC.

It feels weird that I am not super stoked about this deal.

Lucic for Rust but it has to happen now to make sense

What's the deal with Pettersson? Bigtall 25 yo Swedish LHD with term. TOI dropped from 19:24 prior year to 16:29 last year...

No to Lucic or Zucker. Can that be an option?

This is the best I can personally do.
