Ok Hartley, you made your point with the original benching. Sitting Sven twice in a row is overkill. Let the kid show you what he can do now. I have a feeling this is Hartley having a pissing match at this point, as he already called Sven out in the media while praising Jackman and McGratton at the same time. Now he plays both of them again, when most would agree that barring injuries only one of the 2 of them should be playing in each game.
I'm no NHL coach, but I know that sitting Baertschi twice in a row while he is healthy is counter productive to our rebuild/youth movement.
