Then that's when Lucic comes in. It's nice to have a heavyweight around because if push comes to punch in the face we all know no one wants to fight Lucic.
If someone wants to take runs at our skilled guys because Tkachuk takes runs at Kassian then go for it, and deal with Lucic. Meanwhile Chucky is going to keep dishing out massive hits.
These hockey dinosaurs are saying you should answer the bell after a CLEAN hit? Give me a break.
