Luchanko started slow, was getting roughed up without calls, took a bad slashing penalty out of frustration. Then settled down and looked more confident as the game went along, Paired with Richard, speed kills. On the job training, but I think he's going to play with the Flyers next season, the longer the Phantoms are in the playoffs, the more NHL ready he'll become. The raw tools are there, he's just a little "shy," needs to be more arrogant with the puck.
Bump is a physical forward, forced turnovers along the boards using his body, has a plus shot, but looked awkward handling the puck on the PP. The skill is there, but might need a little polish, still only 21.
Grebenkin is interesting, big, agile, good hands, right now less than the sum of his parts, makes a lot of "almost plays" but he's more than a big body, has legitimate NHL offense skills. Has short area "shake and bake" and good ice vision.
Grans, Samson, McDonald, Andrae, good D-depth but I'd like to see more from Andrae on the PP. If you're an undersized offense first D-man, you need to be a plus PP QB, so far York Andrae and Zamula have failed that test.
