I don't think it's likely though. The only thing that could see him repeating that production total in my mind is lack of opportunity on a deeper team.

This is entirely possible.

Still fans, but not really good fans.

Who was it that obsessively hoped Backlund would fail again?

Also, who was it that Bertuzzied obsessively whined about?

But can we get behind what should have come out of this game, the Benning gif of "what there are two Karlssons" after trading their 1st next year for Melker Karlsson.

Not two. more like .....10-15.

Chemo Bingo is much more edgy and tough to get along with.

Where R U Chris O Sullivan or something like that .. and for some reason Kobasew comes to mind for the other question but my memory isn't what it used to be

That sounds like you reading the holier than thou and I’m smarter than you into their comments. Because their comments said neither of those things.

Geez it’s bad enough we have to deal with this Bennett hating garbage and now the haters are going all faux outrage when Bennett does well.

Get over yourself

"Suck it Bennett haters" kind of speaks for itself.

Well if anybody self identifies as a Bennett hater then they should go suck it. Hating on one of youngest skilled players makes no sense if you’re a fan of the team. A lot of us are sick of all the negativity and crap flung all over almost every thread on this board by a very select few who irrationally hate Bennett.

Anyone who took offense to that post has some issues IMO.

Nothing gets rid of negativity and crap better than telling people to suck it.

Seems like there is lots of "faux outrage" to go around. Here's hoping Sam's play puts this tired debate to bed.

The list just keeps on growing.. continuously calling out other posters:
"sad"
"laughable"
"spoiled"
"whiners"
"issues"
..probably more

Ever stop to think that when you call out other posters, you are no better? You need to relax and let people have their own opinions. Guess what?? You don't get to decide who has rational and irrational opinions about a hockey player. I hope this is not what you do in real life at work/school. Or maybe you are just a "Bennett Haters Hater".

Bertuzzied hated Butler. Seems he was proven right on that one.

I’m unsure if we’ve had a chance to discuss something very, very important.

How is 18 year old Sam Bennett doing? Does anyone have any opinions, one way or the other?

Yeah you’re right. Nothing screams subtlety like:

Shut it Bennett haters

How about that Bennett kid

It’s not so much faux outrage as epic butthurtedness by the Bennett lovers. If you go back you’ll see there were zero negative comments until someone had to get all high and mighty. Go back and look at the other PGT’s too. None of the “anti-Bennett” people (which I seriously overstating it anyways) said anything bad about Bennett despite average to below average play. If we wanted to play the dbag posts after every game, the anti-Bennett people have a lot more ammo than the pro-Bennett people and yet they seem keep those posts to themselves. Maybe you just need thicker skin if a simple retort gets you all riled up.

Dube is passing Bennett by.

Won't know till we hit real meaningful games. However at this point if I had to put my money on who is the better player 5 years from now I'm betting on Dube. I think he has the potential to be one of the most dynamic players on this team.

Yeah i agree but if Bennett lived up to his potential i would eat crow. I like Dube and Bread.

[calgarywinning]

Let's get both Dube and Bennett hitting their stride together at the same time.

Lazar just can't keep up. Hathaway I like quite a bit, but not compared to Dube.

[PsYcNeT]

Can Dube play like, 20 games before we anoint him
