D | 6' 6" | 220 lb. | Age: 18 |  |

Lucifer Olivier Leveque is very much one of the top offensive defensemen that has been a dominating force for two seasons now, and has shown great progress with this part of his game. He has ensured always that he is present when his team needs him and even this season, he is showing it again. LoL was drafted 20th overall originally by his agents team (turned GM) San Diego and then traded to the Rush after his exceptional season seen his team almost make the cup finals. On the Rush, he currently has himself an 18 point campaign in just 10 games, he is almost 2 PPG which is almost unheard of as a defender. Leveque is leading the VHLM for defensemen and is top 10 (6th) in the league for assists. Some people may be disappointed by his lack of a physical/two-way game, but from what we've seen, this is just not his focus for the time being. After being drafted in the VHLM, Leveque went on to be drafted almost in the identical same spot as his VHLM draft, 19th to the Seattle Bears, a team his agent is very, very familiar with, having had multiple players in the past play with this franchise. Leveque knows the GM quite well and knows he'll be very happy with this team, and is excited to get his journey started. 

 

PROS

 

Scoring - While you don't see it often, Lucifer currently has an (80) ranking for his scoring ability and has 6 goals on the season (making up 1/3 of his point total). As a defender, this is certainly something to get you excited about, and seeing it on a scouting report is even more amazing. Lucifer has informed his coaches and GM's as well as agent, that this metric will continue to be one he will be focusing on. 

 

Passing - Similar to his scoring ability comes another huge offensive threat in the way of his passing. While his (70) ranking for his passing ability is not as high as his scoring ability, his actual numbers of 12 assists actually make up 2/3 of his points which is absolutely nutty. Lucifer takes pride in being a teammate who can spread the wealth and ensure that if opportunities are given, he will make use of them. 

 

Skating - Hands down, one of the fastest in the league by far. Lucifer found his stride early on after receiving some help from his coaches, and has never looked back. With an (80) ranking, it is very obvious that this metric is really helping him do what he does best on the ice, score goals and sauce apples. What more could you want from a dynamic threat like this man? Not much, that's what. 

 

CONS

 

Checking - Lucifer is not known for his hitting, and everyone knows this. He has not improved his (40) ranking for this metric as of yet, and says he has no plans on doing so. Currently on the season he only has 3 hits and last season only ended the whole year with 31. It is not a big focus of his while in the minors, though he did express some interest in 'letting loose' and 'steamrolling people' when he makes it to the bigs, so that could be exciting... 

 

Fighting - While Lucifer was a scrapper in his younger days, the more experienced player now still has his base (40) ranking for the metric, and again this is one that will not be touched likely for his whole career. Lucifer is much more disciplined and level headed, and very much goal oriented. He plans to keep a good head on his shoulders, and do things the right way, though he's French, so how long can we really contain the anger? 

 

And there you have it, the complete report on our boy, LoL. More to come from this bright star.
