Well that's a pretty good reference, and it's probably easier to tell from a pic like that. Still don't think it's an enormous difference. But the official listings are more dramatic than my last recollection so I'll grant you that.
Nevertheless I still think it's a folly to continue playing Lucic in a top-six role instead of giving reps to these guys. People can say Phillips didn't assert himself in the 11 minutes he got but it's not a big enough sample to come away with anything either way. It's the same mindset as writing off Sonny Milano as a player because of a terrible pre-season sample. Ultimately, the results that matter are shots and goals.
