With Eriksson not helping the team win, and JB's job on the line I don't see a situation where we keep this boat anchor of a contract for another two years.
Lucic fills a need for the Canucks lacking aggression and has quite a few skinny guys coming onto the team soon (Gaudette, Madden) or is already on the team like Petey and Sutter, along with the plethora of avg sized wingers in Baertschi, Goldy, Granlund - OR simply just lack aggression like Pearson, Leivo, Boeser.
The only players on this team with any jam is Virtanen and Motte + injured Roussel.
Every team needs balance of skill, size, aggression and speed, Lucic fills that hole on the Canucks with his size and aggression, especially with Roussel out till Xmas at best & won't be the same till 2020 I bet.
I suspect that any trade that brings in a vet with term of more than 2 years will be under the condition that any NTC or NMC will be waived prior to the expansion draft.

Did that happen prior to the last expansion draft?
AND if the sweetener for Lucic is swapping #10 for #8 the Canucks got a real shot at one of Zegras, Dach or Cozens, that is if Podkolzin, Caufield, Boldy or Bro go before #8.
Imagine the Canucks top two lines of:
Petey - Boeser
Horvat - Cozens
shiiiiit that's worth the trade in itself.
I can't see any of Zegras, Dach or Cozens reaching #10.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.
Eriksson pisses everyone off cause everyone has seen what he can do when "HE", feels like it.
It's retarded. He's got a wicked snap shot and uses it 2 or 3 times a year.
He'll stand in the dirty area round the crease and bang in about 3 goals a year.
The capability is there. He isn't. Fucking space cadet. Tests?
sorry

I agree with the swapping of the 10 and 8 being worth it depending on the board, could be the difference of getting a Quinn Hughes or being stuck with Zadina. Zegras is who I’m salivating over and maybe a Broberg

I have no idea. Did it?
I'm basically saying that we won't see something like Loui for Looch if the latter comes with his full NMC.
