Not the top 6 now, but it took him until game 47 to not scratch Bennett for one of the worst hockey players in the NHL, Tyler Kennedy. He's STILL playing engo over Despres. Its a common joke in pgh about how reluctant he is against playing rookies. I guess I can see him not wanting to risk rookie mistakes with such a talented team, but sometimes it goes overboard. O well, all in all he's been a great coach
