Lucic, to me aside from being scary to look at, has been aweful. Early in the season he was playing so well. Skating well, great exit passes, using his size and skill set well. Now it seems he's always turning it over or indirectly responsible for the turnover. He also seems to be skating in sand. I don't know if he's conserving himself for the playoffs, but to me he has been bad.
Lewis just is what he is. What you see is what you get. Plays die on his stick, but I don't see many issues with his play.
To me after a few games Jarkrok hasn't really looked like a centre. Hopefully he adjusts a bit better, but if I had it my way i'd move Monahan up and move Jarkrok to the wing.

I agree, I think Jarnkrok will fit better on RW. Coleman-Backlund-Jarnkrok would probably look quite excellent. Allows us to try one Righty on each top 9 line as well. Sit Monahan for a game, then see how Mangi-Monahan-Toffoli looks one more time.
