Lucic and Neal are two totally different players and it unfair to compare the trade based on goals / points.
Lucic will never again drop 20 goals and Neal was bound to come back after the bad year in Calgary.
It was a signing that didn't work out for either party. It happens.
I'm not happy with the money Lucic is making but the trade had to happen.
Neither guy was happy where they were so why not swap ???

Why not swap:
1. Lucic has a longer history of being terrible
2. Lucic is slower
3. Lucic makes dumb plays that cost goals
4. Lucic is entitled and makes leading comments to the media
5. Lucic will probably be useless long before the end of his contract
6. Lucic's style of play goes very poorly for players over 33
7. Lucic isn't one dimensional, he doesn't really have a dimension
8. Lucic has hands of stone
9. There had to be better options for trading Neal than taking on the worst contract in the NHL
10. Neal's buyout wasn't that bad in a few years from now
11. Neal's rebound capacity/likelihood was far better than Lucic's
Why Swap:
1. Ken Holland sounds like a really nice guy on the phone
2. Jonny Field Hockey didn't like Neal
3. Dressing room, or something
That's all I got.

You forgot the caveman likes to continually pout on the bench. Slamming doors. Slamming sticks. Cussing loud enough to be heard in the upper bowl. You know, like most great leaders do.
If he is fine with doing that in front of 18,000 people and national television, I can’t even imagine how bad it gets in the dressing room. If I played or worked with a person like that....I would have a serious problem with him. Which I’m sure many leaders on the team did.

Yeah, but I mean, why not make the swap?
2015/2016 - This Kool-Aid tastes like McDavid flavoured Drain-O.
2016/2017 - This Kool-Aid is starting to taste like juice.
2017/2018 - I'm drinking this Kool-Aid, in hopes that it's Drain-O.
2018/2019 - Another round of Drain-O, good sir!
