Plus with Lucic in the Pacific now and it looks like long term too, you will need guys like Bollig and Engelland around. Ferland is tough but he's going to get murdered if he has to deal with Lucic. Rather have Bollig or Engelland take Lucic off for 5 then any other player on the roster.
All the truculent haters are looking at it all wrong. Bollig and Engelland are there to be used and abused (ie, sitting in the pressbox, sitting in the penalty box, fighting). You don't want good players or young players doing that.

I dont agree with the bolded at all. They are both about the same weight (225-230) and Lucic is listed as being 2" taller (6'3 vs 6'1). I think those 2 going head to head is going to be a whole lot closer than you think it is.
