Oops, looks like we got owned in this trade

https://www.nhl.com/news/johnny-gaudreau-says-calgary-flames -on-verge-of-stanley-cup/c-308490928

Gaudreau says Talbot, Lucic could be missing pieces to Cup run for Flames

So Lucic on the 4th line playing 10 mins a night and yelling swear words from the bench at the opposition is all of a sudden going to make Gaudreau and Monahan willing to play hard hockey and battle it out in the playoffs? icon_lol

In my opinion, the NHL has always been like this to a degree but in the last few years the discrepancy between playoff hockey and regular season hockey has widen substantially. Regular season hockey is all about speed and skill and we have seen that speed and skill get more and more prevalent the last few years. That's why guys like Lucic has struggled. But playoff hockey is all about grind it out, beat down, survival of the fittest hockey. The Blues won playing that way. The Caps the year before went against the small, fast Vegas team and as soon as Fluery wasn't putting up .950 %, they got their butts kicked by the bigger, nastier Caps team.

The Flames didn't lose last year because they didn't have Lucic threatening people from the bench. They lost because their 99 pt scorer in Gaudreau was invisible. He was too small and unwilling to play hard, go to the dirty areas hockey. The refs put the whistles away in the playoffs so you have to battle for every inch. He had 1 pt in 5 games. Monahan their 34 goal, 82 pt #1 center, a guy who the radio guys like Warner RIP daily for being too soft, had 2 pts in 5 games because he is a big center but is a perimeter player. Lindholm their found 1st line player had 2 pts in 5 games. He's not a hard player. So their whole 1st line who is made up of fast, skilled but not hard to play against guys were invisible. While the Avs top guys in Mackinnon and Rantanen and Landeskog, guys who are skilled fast but also don't play soft hockey, dominated.

Lucic will not help the Flames main guys grow a set.
