Sounds terrible, but should these guys really be blocking shots in a limited meaning game? Especially a guy like Backlund.

Burke doesn't want these young guys to start thinking that they're bigger than the team by having "vanity" numbers. It's also an incentive for the player to get rid of his Training Camp number.

If Bennett gets a foot of ice he can make something happen. Similar to Johnny in that respect.

But if you've been doing it all season long, it becomes second nature

According to the radio broadcast, Jooris is flying out there today. Think he's worried about Bennett getting his spot in the playoffs?

Brett Kulak has been really good IMO, other than the dumb penalty in the 1st.

He shouldn't be. Bennett is fighting for a LW / C spot, I think that's Granlund's to lose. I think moreso, Jooris feels like a veteran and is trying to show some leadership. Though he just picked up a phantom penalty.

Oooo bit of a suicide pass by Poirier to Ferland on that zone entry.

I sure hope we have to burn the first year of Bennett's contract this year.

Bennett is making a statement this game. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in over Raymond.
