The coach exchanged by far his most productive even strength point producer for by far his worst, and is left publicly voicing his displeasure about his teams lack of production recently.
Ruzicka was listing ... he's trying to develop an inconsistent player.

I think that will be the switch at some point if things continue for the other two lines.

Could be any time now.

But if he insists on having Lucic in the lineup (which he seems to), I think an argument could be made that a switch would worsen the fourth line more than Ruzicka would help the second line.
