Why would we scratch a player that is actually one of the 12 best forwards we have and is playing to their potential?
You can be mad that we don't have enough forward options to properly fill out our top 3 lines, but scratching the forwards we do have just to replace them with a worse option makes no sense, unless, like what they are doing with Bennett is trying to get that player to realize their potential.
What does Chiasson get out of or learn from being sat? And what's the benefit to the team, we get to move another player on that line who is likely even less up to the task then Chiasson is?
