Given how bad Neal was, my bar for Lucic is just good five on five defense, and helping whatever lower six line he's on get out of trouble. Lately though, even that has been waning for sure.
And honestly with Toffoli in town I would get him off the powerplay too, that's a good point.
Toffoli to unit one, Monahan to unit two, Lucic to five on five only.

The deployment should be situational. All of Toffoli, Monahan, and Lucic bring very different things. I'd like to see them being deployed as needed. If the other team is being physical, that leans more towards Lucic's abilities.
The Flames really need to get back to their game of relentless and varied attack. 4 lines rolling and hitting the other team constantly. Last night, only the 4th line looked like they were playing that role.
