I hope Chiasson doesn't chase Chase at any point.

He's physically manhandled their "NHL" squad before when he was a scrawny 18 year old too.

It's still exciting to watch.

We have Tkachuk and no one else does. Love it.

I will remember to remember that when Bennettime is arguing for an 8x8 for Sammy.

why was kassian going after bennet during that faceoff mid period there? just regular stuff, or did something happen?

have been watching on and off, that debate was too enticing.

Bennett is more skilled than Monahan and plays a meaner game at the same position. Gaudreau may get more points, but overall Bennett will be our best.

I really like the Tkachuk Bennett combo. This is what I was looking forward to from the moment we drafted him. If this can turn into something then we are in good shape with Gaudreau - Monahan / Tkachuk - Bennett. Just need to mix and match 2 RWs like Frolik and Brouwer and the top 6 looks incredible. Not to mention Backlund as a 3rd line C would be incredible depth. Hard not to get excited!

For all the stream issues, gotta say the fan960 audio stream has been perfect. Well, except for the pronunciation of Chiasson.

Kassian was jousting with Tkachuk. Because Tkachuk was spearing him in the faceoff circle.

I think Bennett might be a better player than Monahan, but Mony suits Gaudreua's game better and will get more points for a while still

Bennett is the new Gilmour
Gaudreau the new Fleury minus the feisty part

I'll be changing my name to Bennettime and will #### on everyone who doesn't think he deserves 10x10

Commercials are perfect with video and audio and the game is awful. Makes sense

Bennett had 'flashes' last season, but have to say he's single handedly taking over this game. Exhibition or not, that's a first I've seen of him in Flames silks, and cool to see.

I've been saying for a while that Bennett will be the face of the franchise one day and that he will overtake Monahan for #1 center. I saw him play a lot in Kingston and he has tons of juice. Very creative, skilled, dynamic and competitive. I really hope he reaches his potential!
