My take on LOC: hustle, "see puck, get puck" player that provides a lot of energy; has very little NHL-level IQ or vision and almost no finishing ability; plays his best in limited minutes. TL;DR version: no, LOC is not a 3RW

Exactly. PERFECT 4th line player and has looked way out of place whenever he's been forced to play up in the lineup. I think the hockey IQ is there, but the vision and finishing are so gosh-darn awful that it negates anything else. But his speed and forecheck ability is why he is so valuable in limited minutes

Points are well taken and I agree with you. Just thought I'd ask the crowd

Agree with everything here. It would be great to see LOC take the next step, but I think he is what he is.
