If Staal is retained 50% it’s a reasonable deal.

I knew I was forgetting something lmao, good call!

Why on earth are you not trading Hall? You suck and he’s gonna walk for nothing get something for him

I mean, might as well try to reinforce the forward/PP core to keep him happy ya know, treat him the same as Eichel. Plus there are talks of an extension, so personally I'd trade him only if he's miserable and not negotiating a contract (like Staal). Even then, wait til the deadline when there's no hope left lmao...he prob won't even go for a 1st/2nd given his current production anyways, so why trade him away and ruin the forward depth? I'd rather try to fix it for a more competitive team...also you suck more lol <3

Flames decline lucics contract is better than okposos and lucic is way better

That's an interesting point actually...both have the same cap hit, same term, same play style, and same role on their respective teams. If Lucic could be traded 1 for 1 for Neal I see this being somewhere close...plus getting a young power forward with term along with a mid/late draft pick in exchange for a bottom 6 forward who wants out makes the trade a bit more palpable, in my opinion. I appreciate your criticism

The flames only have to pay lucic 5.25 mil and would have to pay okposo 6 mil, 750k is a lot when you consider the flat cap for the next 4 years and lucic has been playing really good lately and last night bennett was good he had 2 assists.

I am not sure even God could save the Sabres!

Wait, wasn't Lucic offered a $6M/7 yr contract like Okposo was in the 2016 offseason? Why is his cap hit now $5.25M?

Oilers are paying 750k, so flames only have to pay 5.25

I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong lmao, how about Hall straight up for Lucic and Bennett? (you know, to help make the other guy happy lmao)
