That said, I thought Lucic had maybe his best game, and L4 was better than I’ve usually seen them. Even so, old warriors Lewis and Richardson are going to hurt us as games get faster and more competitive. Let’s see what some young speed from Stockton — Pelletier, #2 in AHL scoring — can do.

Also, please, someone, make sure Zadorov never touches the puck again .

Have to disagree with this completely.

Lewis has been tremendous IMO. No he will never light up the score sheet but there is very little to not like about his defensive game.

Plays the right way and eats some important minutes without the coach having to worry about him.

Way better than I expected, at least thus far, and think he may be the best off-season addition thus far when factoring his role and cost.

Just a really smart player who does his job night in and night out.
