Bennett-Stajan-Shore
Ferland-Jooris-Colborne

After a while:
Gaudreau-Monahan-Hudler
Bennett-Backlund-Bouma
Ferland-Stajan-Shore
Colborne-Jooris-Jones
A line of Bennett-Backlund-Bouma we would hope to be able to name "The Killer B's" !

Yay! Can't wait to see him play. Hopefully he's in against Edmonton.

Time to let the tiger out of the cage.

Don't come here often, but you guys use Raymond on the fourth line? Isn't he ill suited for that position? If he's buried on the depth chart I think you should sit him in favour of an actual fourth liner.

Earned not given - with everyone getting healthy and the addition of Bennett - just about everyone on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th line is going to be aware that anyone not stepping up their game can find themselves a healthy scratch.

I see him getting two points on adrenaline alone, enough to put down the Oilers and get the win.

Neither do I Brad, but that was already happening long before the decision was made.

Love to see Sam on the 3rd line. Stajan has been good centering the 4th line.
What a treat if we get to see Bennet play Sat night!

Best case scenario vs the Oil is we see him on Stajan's wing, playing 4th line minutes with a vet to look after him. It is very likely that he is a scratch, though Hartley must be thinking what we're all thinking (what better way it start your NHL career than by playing an AHL-level team?)

Stajan has been playing very well lately, so a line of Bennett - Stajan - Shore makes a tonne of sense.

I can't wait until the Bennett era begins. We have a lot of good players at the moment, but to me he's the best of the bunch.

Man, the Flames are butt-hurt about the Baertschi thing... Get over it, every situation and player is different.
