So big change is the on ice shooting percentage between the pairs that changes the GF production.

However one thing that may skew the counting stats is that Frolik (3), Tkachuk (1), and Backlund (2) have 6 combined empty net goals - so that may skew things production wise depending on what combo of players was on the ice for those goals.

I'm too lazy to go look that up though.

Should add though that I personally like Bennett on the third line more than Bennett on the second line. But that has nothing to do with performance on the second line. I just think Bennett is more of a play driver than Frolik who's a better support player. Our bottom 6 is more effective with Bennett there than Frolik, and I think that is a bigger gap then the slight lift we might get from Bennett on line two.
