I think it's a matter of time before things start clicking again.

Lost in all the talk is when Gaudreau got cross-checked from behind and Bennett nailed the guy who did it. Don't remember who it was , but I saw Gaudreau go down and no one do anything. Then from the right of my TV screen Bennett comes barrelling in and nails the guy. Thought for sure he was going to get a penalty, but the refs didn't call anything. Wish I could find a clip of it.
I really hope this was a breakout game for him. He was all over the ice, made plays and had a bunch of scoring chances. He's going to be scary good when he fills in with another 20-25 lbs. Hopefully him and Johnny stay together for a while.
