Chaz Lucius has 5 goals and 10 assists for 15 points in 6 games in the WHL this year. Before that he was a point per game at the world juniors, and he started the year with 5 points in 12 games for the Moose. Should he have been sent down? Will he stay down for the rest of the season? https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/512106/chaz-lucius
Edit: apparently he has been injured and is out for the season. Wishing him the best.

He wasn’t AHL ready yet. He’s also sadly a bit injury prone.
He will finish out the season with the Winterhawks. As u/froah said, he wasn’t ready yet to be facing grown men on a nightly basis. The year in the WHL will do well for him. It will get his confidence up and also hopefully allow time for him to put on some weight, too.
There was some hockey pundit talking about this type of thing on the weekend. I don’t remember who it was, but their theory was that learning to “be dominant every night” isn’t as easy as it looks, and isn’t necessarily a bad thing for prospects.
Well shit recent news proves me right lol. Fr tho this is shitty for him and I hope it won’t derail his career.
He’s not playing for anyone right now, he just had surgery again. His injuries could affect his future at this rate.
Should’ve stayed with the university of Minnesota another year longer
I’m a shitty hockey player…but I’d screw up most 19yr olds I went into the corner with…..I think he will do well to not play against men
Now I am obviously joking here. Chaz would get the puck 100/100 times and likely jersey me and beat the shit out of me….but my point is still valid
