That might actually be a bad thing, though.
If opponents are too afraid to retaliate to Tkachuk for getting under their skin just because Lucic is there, that takes away one of Tkachuk's best qualities, which is drawing penalties.
On the other end, if opponents do still continue to retaliate and take dumb penalties against Tkachuk, Lucic coming in to protect him while getting a minor penalty himself will just negate the PP Tkachuk drew.
Doesn't make too much sense to me.
