Vladislav Lukin, RW(L), Tri-City Americans, 6-0, 190, DOB 1.24.1997
Not a pretty skater, but gets around ok with decent speed. Plays a very passive offensive game, doesn’t try to “attack” the opposition’s net. He has nice hands and showed off the ability to dish and receive. Passed up a number of chances to finish his checks. Made some nice moves with the puck off the rush. Has a quick release with a hard shot. Basically, he’s a “typical” Russian. Don’t see him being draft-worthy right now, but he has the skill to turn it up a few notches once he gets more comfortable in North America.
Did Ovi carry the Capitals to the playoffs this year?
