If that's a young player they are not getting into the lineup the next game. Let alone playing key minutes.
There is something off about Sutter's player deployments.

Yup. Lucic made a soft play along the side boards on a Lewis rim around and then proceeded to lollygag back on what was the turning point of the game. Sure, it was a weak one by Vladar, but those are not plays or efforts that any other player would be getting away with.
The only thing keeping Lucic in the NHL is his contract and relationship with the head coach. I like the guy but his day's as an NHL player are over.
