Lucic is a very smart player. That's why he's a first line player rather than a 4th line player (aside from being big, none of his hockey skills scream first line player - it's his hockey sense that distinguishes him from other big players that end up as 3rd or 4th line grinders).

Lucic-McDavid-Yakupov
Draisaitl-Nuge-Eberle
Pouliot-X-Versteeg

Id like to see us get a 3rd line center with some offense.

Hagelin would be ideal for him+Eberle as the 3rd wheel. Can't help but feel Lucic's clay feet may throw the line off.

He worked with pretty much everyone last year. Pouliot, Yak, Maroon, Eberle. Everyone but Hall.

So really, you want something like this?

Let them play until trade deadline, at which point Lander will have mooched 55 points out of McD:s 115 point season and will fool other teams to give up a high draft pick for him.

:laugh:

Lander is not playing on the first line, he's probably in the AHL.

Most Oiler fans are still gooo gooo over Yak and want him on the first line. The problem with that is he is not a first liner. Yak cant even produce on the PP let alone 5 on 5.

Lucic McDavid Eberle will be our first line this year.
