Analytically, Lucic has been getting it done at both ends of the ice.
He's above 50% in all the major categories, including possession, scoring chances and high-danger looks.
If not for some bad luck - with a sub-1.000 PDO (save percentage + shooting percentage, 5-on-5) - his numbers could look even better.
Still, the results are impressive.
And they speak to the winger's commitment to his craft, at a stage in his career when his role is evolving more quickly than ever.
Need proof?
Just listen to what the crowd to say on Saturday, with the always popular, bass-rumbling Loooooooch ringing out constantly at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Between that and the epic AC Milan theme song playing over the loudspeaker when he tickles the twine, it's a real party atmosphere in the old barn these days.
For a throwback player like Lucic, this is what you play for.
"It's always fun and you appreciate all their love for you as a player," Lucic said. "This year, it's not just individuals - you feel the love for the team from the fans here in Calgary, so we really enjoy that and really appreciate that. ... We need this building to be a loud building and they've done a good job of that so far.
"We had a lot of motivation coming into this year because of how things went last year, and we wanted to get that winning feel, that culture thing going again. Everything's better when you're winning. It's fun coming to the rink, food tastes better, you sleep better. Hanging out, you're smiling more, you like being around your teammates and all that type of stuff."
At this point in the season, there are countless individual milestones worth talking about.
Take, for example, the play of Elias Lindholm and Andrew Mangiapane, who share the team's goal-scoring lead with seven on the year. Or Matthew Tkachuk's bullish, between-the-legs tally against the Blueshirts. Or Jacob Markstrom, who has four (!) shutouts in nine starts - literally one-third of his career goose-eggs in a fraction of his 322 career appearances.
Or, or, or.
It's been that kind of year.
But the Lucic angle is right there, too.
