I also don’t mind a Bennett scratch. I’m not a hater, the guy is an NHLer. But he is not above a healthy scratch now and then, as other players need to rotate in and the gap just isn’t that great between him and others, for a variety of reasons. His production is still replacement level.

So the guy that plays the most time per game killing penalties on the 2nd best (elite by definition) PK unit in the entire league...is not evidence that he is an elite PKer?
OK then.
