Except of course when Bennett takes a phantom penalty.
Looks like he did. The entire first line hasn't played since that goal, according to Haynes.

Plus, you do need to get Jokipakka some game time sooner rather than later.

Good. They don't deserve another shift.

Another cross-check in front, no call. Interesting.

Can the Backlund line just play the rest of the 3rd?

Second game of a back to back, the only line really going is the Backlund line. Brouwer takes 2 penalties that kill us, Bennett and Monahan don't have much jump. I'm fine with him playing the other lines.

You have way too much faith in Burkelivingulutzan. Chiasson is gonna hit the 82 games mark. He's big and strong and shoots right, that's all you need to be given the free pass.

Better yet, can we clone them? And just have 4 lines of Tkachuk - Backlund - Frolik?
