Don't order your Milan Lucic jerseys just yet, Edmonton Oilers fans.
Lucic reportedly met face-to-face with the Dallas Stars, led by owner Tom Gaglardi, his agent, Gerry Johannson told NEWS 1130 Sports.
The discussion took place in Lucic's hometown of Vancouver, and Johannson also said it will be his final face-to-face meeting with July 1 approaching.
The bruising winger disputed a report that indicated he agreed to a deal with the Oilers, but Lucic is garnering plenty of attention from around the league as one of the most sought-after free agents.
Lucic, 28, carried a cap hit of $6 million in the final season of his contract, played out with the Los Angeles Kings.
The Stars have plenty of cap flexibility, but are also in the market for a new starting goaltender.
