Or maybe he is a trade chip.

Pitlick seems like a prime candidate to take over that spot on the 3rd line RW with Lucic and Backlund and I don't think Dube is going down the line up. On the other hand it was a tough year for him and he was called out by Sutter as needing to improve.
It is not the third line... It is a checking line. Lucic does not belong on the ice against the other teams top line. Unless he is starting a fight with one of them
