I don’t really understand it since it should be a strength, but it’s noticeable to me.
He had a real solid gme tonight though.
Flames got some pop from the top 6 and kept out of the box, and that should be good to win against a lot of teams.

Hmm interesting. I think his board work in the defensive zone is usually very good. It’s the opposite of Gaudreau who is awful in this aspect. When the puck rims around to Lucic, I’ve noticed he’s very good at absorbing contact, reading the play and making the right pass or clear out of the zone.
He can also rush the defenseman at the point really well. When they hear the footsteps coming, they usually rush or thrown it away.
