A defensive standout for the Americans, Lukin does not always get the recognition he deserves offensively but this past week, the veteran forward scored a pair of game winning goals for Allen helping them to three wins. The Fort McMurray, Alberta native finished the week with two goals and an assist and was a +2.
In Friday's 4-0 win, Lukin scored the game's opening goal and assisted on another first period strike which was all the Americans needed in their shutout victory. Then on Saturday, the 5-11, 185-pounder scored a third period power play goal breaking a two-all tie in his team's win over Missouri.
On the season, Lukin has scored 16 goals with 14 assists in 52 games. He carries a +8 plus/minus rating and has four game winning goals (tied for second on the first place Americans) and a team-leading three shorthanded goals.
