Why would it be "extremely unprofessional"? They have a very good idea of whether or not a player will commit, they just can't announce it until tomorrow.

The Mcdavid Lucic combo will very much haunt the Canucks for the next 4 years.

So no one can answer if Doug Maclean is reliable and if his statement of Lucic possibly resigning with LA is infact true or just speculation
Doug MacLean is not a guy I would care about in term so what he says. He's just trying to get hits.

Thank u . Edmonton is sure going to be one hell of a team for years to come . I say their lineup is the deepest besides maybe Florida .

I think he was just speculating. I've never actually seen him ever call any trades or signings. I'm sure he'd have some NHL sources being a former GM but I'm not sure he's all that credible.
Because there's 0 guarantee that Lucic doesn't find a deal he likes better somewhere else and tells Chia "sorry, actually going somewhere else."
OR
Seeing how Stamkos is no longer available teams up their bid and Lucic says "match what they're offering and it's a deal."
Chia has no power in these situations. Hell, trade LAK a 7th rounder if you've got a deal in place and get him to sign before tomorrow. The market got flipped on it's head and Chia has to react now.

Can't say I blame him. Vancouver is probably at least 5 years away from contending for anything, and that's only if they decide to start rebuilding this year. Edmonton can pay him and they're up and coming. Seems like a no brainier.

THANK GOD, I think Lucic is a decent player but whoever signs him will have an albatross of a contract.
I'd still like him to sign in edmonton tomorrow but wont die if he doesnt. There are other wingers that can come cheaper and for less term if we strike out. Somebody to fill a role for awhile.

Lucic re-signs in LA tomorrow leaving Edmonton holding their c**ks. LAK actual contends, when have the Oilers improved?

Lol like the Canucks are even going to be relevant enough in the next 4 years to be 'haunted'.

trust the yzerplan
Edmonton will be crying when they see the term and price Lucic gets. Anything over 6.5 is an overpayment.
And it'll haunt Edmonton the 2 years after that
Anyone else looking forward to Ryan Miller vs Milan Lucic brawls, i.e. Lucic fighting Gudbranson (Maybe Pedan/Tryamkin) every game?

Maybe Looch can truck the prima donna again. That'd be even better.
