Change Toffoli for Carter and I'd do it.

EDM can't afford to retain that much on Lucic and lose two decent prospects and a 2nd for a pending UFA forward...

Take out the retention and I think it's a fine deal.

2 decent prospects?

He miss placed Puljujärvi in the line up. He belongs on the 4th line or benched.

Well that's the greatest way to waste a prospect.

Just give him a freaking chance.

I really hope returns to Europe though. He needs to gain his confidence back.

Another player with a name, a lot of hype, and no results. He's shown little more than a 3rd line ceiling. He goes to europe he won't be back. NHL teams don't have time for that.

Depends on his performance. If he plays well, he'll almost definitely get another chance in NHL.

As an EDM or LA fan?

I don't think he will. EDM would have his rights till he's 27 and I don't think they would play ball.
He wouldn't have a lot of trade value, and his issues off the ice would be a major deterrent even if his issues on the ice improved.

He goes over, he's done.

Just keep Lucic in Edmonton, LA doesn't want him.

LA.
