I’m not gonna opine about Bennett anymore, not worth the time on this forum of people who think he’s worse than yakupov at this point.
Lindholm just hasn’t looked like anything special so far, preseason or game 1
Still just 1 game but not encouraging to see the same crap effort and results

My bad, just that plus minus is the worst indicator. Go look at Karlssons plus minus as an easy example.
Lindholm wasn’t terrible, him, like the majority of the team tonight was just okay, but no where near terrible.
I don’t think anyone has compared Bennett to Yakupov. He has always had opportunities in the past. He’s still got NHL speed and maybe he just needs to be sheltered a bit to develop. Backlund took over 5 seasons to develop. No need to keep throwing him in the top 6 and mess with his confidence and no need to assume Peters has some crazy vendetta and is constantly giving him 9 min a game on the bottom line when it’s been one game.
Let’s give Bill at least a few games to assess the team and get rid of old habits. Can’t judge the team based on one game.
