Meh. He scored a couple hat tricks in October and then got sent to the fourth line and didn't score a goal after the new year. Sounds more like Mason Raymond than Alex Ovechkin to me.
Hockey isn't all about scoring powerplay goals (although Lucic scored a fair few of those this year)... there's a defensive and physical aspect to it, too.
If I'm grading both players...
Neal
5v5 offense: 6/10
PP offense: 8/10
Defense: 1/10
Physicality: 2/10
Lucic
5v5 offense: 5/10
PP offense: 6/10
Defense: 6/10
Physicality: 10/10
