These are all good points and have been addressed in the past. But last year no one cared about the Hall trade when we were in the playoffs and doing great.
Eberle was doing nothing here...and was a minus player for a long time. It was a 50/50 trade as to what it would produce for the Oilers.
I can see Draisidal, and McDavid to long term...but yeah not Lucic.
