Nice! I hope Lucic gives him his shot. This actually reminded me of a comical story.

I grew up playing mostly against, and sometimes with Dennis Bonvie. He was a fighter.

After he made the NHL in Edmonton he told us about one of his first games. They were playing the Wings and he got sent out for a face off. Who should line up beside him? Well, none other than Bob Probert. Dennis, who was probably 19 or 20 at the time, looked at him and said, “Mr Probert, you’re either gonna make me or break me.” Bobbie smiled and gave the kid his shot.

Dennis held his own and managed to eek out about 5 seasons in the NHL and many more in the minors. He always believed that was the ‘moment’ so to speak. Ergo, I hope that Luc gives Peluso his ‘moment’ too.
