Simon is still the only player that sticks out like a sore thumb to me- he just doesnt fit there. Here's your chance Pelts.

I also disagree with NE. While I have not historically been a bennett booster, I think he is in the ideal position to succeed on Backlund's wing, and it would take a major back track from him to shake him from the lineup. I personally think Backlund's wing is almost perfect- he can work on the positive elements of his game while someone is still there to clean up if he's making mistakes... that way his confidence can remain high, and I believe that is integral to his game.
