Can't answer that until the end of this year, honestly. 20 plus goals I would say that about right.

Disagree, what has he done to earn that? Contracts are generally paid on what players have done not will do

It's an extention and if they think he is a top line player (which is where he is palying) and the other things he brings, could be a good signing. I dunno, it might over paying a bit but not by much and has the potential to be a sweet deal.

I'm somewhere in the middle... Id rather have him then Kessel, put it that way.

They must have high hopes for Lucic. Wow. I guess we'll see...

must expect him to increase his out put from his 42points

There is nobody in the league right now that has the combination of talents that Lucic has. If the Bruins let him get to next summer there would be Offer Sheets for sure. This is a guy would strikes fear into opposing players AND is a genuine top 6 guy. Great resigning, although does this mean the end of Wheeler or Savard ? Time will tell.

Agreed. He may not be worth that money on stats alone, but stats alone don't tell the whole story sometimes. I'd pay that much to have him on the Sens. After all these years, we are still missing the prototypical top line power forward.

If there's one guy who deserves that kind of coin on his 2nd contract, I think he's the guy. He's only going to get...better... :****:
