I am thinking a guy like Pavelski, Getzlaf, J. Williams, Perry ... Someone who can be had for low acquisition cost but will come in demanding request from the group.
Lucic could have been the guy but his on ice play has been pretty bad. A guy like Getzlaf on this team would make a tremendous difference I think. Frankly, even Perry could have been a good option this past off-season.

Lucic’s play is going to improve - he’s a slow starter. I don’t know that he’s an in room leader like you want. Backlund should be, but I don’t think he is. Tanev maybe.
