I am intrigued by what Lucic brings to this team, on the ice and in the room. He has been a pretty ok playoff performer in the past and hopefully he can lead the way for the "kids". Also, if he gets physical the Jets' defence will be filling their diapers when the puck is dumped in. An aggressive forecheck will be the key in my opinion. Just from watching the one exhibition game they are a circus in their own end. If their big guns can get the puck and leave the zone with speed we are in trouble. However, in our end I trust our D to nullify the zone time. It is the rush that scares me.

I think we have a team that can do well, but the hardhats and workboots need to be there. If I was Ward I would have the iso-cam feed of Ferland against Vancouver on 24/7 loop.

GFG, please.
