[BC Ben]

As a Nucks fan, if his contract is over 4 years, I'll say thank all that is good and holy!

No wonder, there's no hope for the Canucks.

 

[TMLife*]

Lol, one bullet dodged.

 

[Mighty Makar]

All Canucks fans rejoice. The Oilers will overpay him!

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

Welcome to Edmonton?

The reveal of the terms tomorrow should be fun. Will be like Christmas morning.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

lucic will be a beast wherever he ends up

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Thank your lucky stars. I hope he signs with Montreal's just to see the reactions of Habs and Bruins fans. You know they're all going to lose their **** if that happens.

What will a desperate Jim Benning do?

He has 15M in cap space and is gunning for the playoffs with a roster that finished 27th last year. Oh boy

Probably licking his chops at Andrew Ladd and Troy Brouwer.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! That is going to be one ugly contract,

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Thank the Lord.

I think the Canucks will sign Eriksson or Ladd.

honestly I was worried about his contract as an Oiler fan, but taking him means Chia really wants to win early in McDavids career. Lucic should be an extremely effective player still for at least the next 4 years. If he has good ofseasons, theres no reason he can't be a good player in year 5 or 6. I just want a shakeup with the Oilers, maybe having Lucic on their side will light a fire under some of the slackers.

 

[Ace]

Vancouver fans should be thrilled by this news.

 

[Tryamkin]

This is old and belongs in the Free Agency thead

 

[soliak]

Vancouver just lucked out. Please Edmonton at 7 or more a season...

 

[canwincup]

Honestly this is a blessing! Thank you Lucic!!

 

[VanIsle]

Edmonton is going to have some very interesting lines next year.

Cementhead 2.0

 

[Gsus]

He's gonna sign 6.5M AAV with the Oilers.

 

[iFan]

Thank god! This might make up for losing the lottery at the draft.

 

[nucks88]

Thank God! But I won't celebrate until it is official tomorrow.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Gotta hope Benning doesn't ante up the dollar amount to try and lure him.

 

[Rebuilt]

Where are all the Nuck fans who were certain he was coming?

And nobody ever answered what the hell Ryan Miller was going to do anyways.

 

[GJB]

Dodged a bullet. Someone is going to overpay. A lot.

 

[drax0s]

Vancouver fans should be thrilled by this news.

I know for sure I am. Yaaaaaaaaaaay!
