Hes been fine on that line but in this stage of his career you cant expect him to sustain it and ideally he's a 4th liner.
He was better than his last two games tonight, but still not as good as when he was first put on that line.
And after the hot start that line is starting to be pretty average. 2 GF, 2 GA and a sub 50% xGF% in the last 5 games.
Dube-Lindholm-Toffoli and Mangiapane-Backlund-Coleman have really clicked, and Duehr/Lewis/Ruzicka/Pelletier seem to be good on the 4th line rotation so far, but for this tram ro make the playoffs we need more from Huberdeau and Kadri and I dont think that happens with Lucic on their wing.

Ideally I agree he is 4th line but he keeps contributing so what ya going to do ?
