"To net his first, Lakovic, the team's captain, beat two Rebels defenders down the ice for a breakaway chance and made an effortless move to his backhand to tie the game 1-1 in the second period. Lakovic's second came with the Warriors on a power play, jamming home his own rebound at the side of the net. The British Columbia native was named first star of the game and also the WHL's top performer of the night."
"Lakovic also scored twice during his season debut on September 27, converting on both a penalty shot, his first goal season, and a power play against the Swift Current Broncos. He scored on another breakaway against the Vancouver Giants on October 4. He split two Red Deer defensemen to convert again on a breakaway on October 10. Driving the net hard, Lakovic found a loose puck behind a Saskatoon Blades goaltender to light the lamp on October 17."
""He's looked fantastic," said an impressed Spencer Carbery at the time. "He's got confidence and also a little bit of swagger.""
