We need to smash the jets

[AllSports4387]

Yohe saying that Shero is at Minny tonight. Warns that it is on the way to Winnipeg. But still, could be hinting at something. You think we would give up what it took to get heatley or Seto? I know it is all speculation. Interesting though. Beau Bennett coming up is exciting and I want to see him as well. But our moves lately have made me think maybe Shero is working up the courage to make a deal.

[Tomahawk27]

I would agree with you if Bennett wasn't recalled. Our top 4 wingers are essentially set now and I highly doubt any of them get moved. Prior to the recall, it would get me thinking, now, not so much. Still a possibility though

[jrm2054]

Where will Bennett be with Sid? Does that mean Kunitz to genos line and boychuck scratch?

[AllSports4387]

We will see how we are using Beau tomorrow. Some people are saying 3rd line to get his feet wet. The reporter from Wilkes-Barre said if he isn't on Malkin's line within a couple games he'd be shocked. Said he fits their line perfectly. Doesn't think he fits Sid's line at all. Sid is the playmaker without a doubt there. Bennett will be more of a setup man for Malkin and Neal. That is what the Wilkes-Barre reporter says at least. He also said he doesn't ever expect Bennett to put on a Wilkes-Barre uni again. Will take some time to adjust because he is a light body. But might dazzle early on with passes and craftiness.

Still, I wouldn't be shocked if we got another guy as well. If we trade TK and parts for a guy who could take Dupers spot, it would still greatly upgrade this team by a lot. Obviously, whoever the player was would be considered a more legitimate top line guy. And we all can agree that Duper over TK is a pretty big advantage. Particularly just in hockey wit.

We have a pretty big 1 tonight in Winnipeg. Bennett watch is officially on. Have to get revenge on the loss up there earlier. A game we shouldn't have given away. Hopefully Sid is feeling it with that brisk Winnipeg air again!!

Bennett on third line tonight with Sutter and tk makes little sense to me he his a scorer not a checker. Tangradi better not play well tonight

I would throw him in with Crosby. Put dupuis on the third line.

[t2a2e9j12]

Thats what I think to

[AllSports4387]

From what I have heard he is much more comfortable and effective on the LW. I think if Cooke doesn't continue to score on Malkin's line Bennett will be there either Sunday or next week.

[t2a2e9j12]

Put him SIDS LW with Cooke on right kunitz to malkins line dupis on third line

[t2a2e9j12]

Adams ya 4th line nice start

[AllSports4387]

I like the idea. Keeping a grinder on in both lines. But I don't know. I'd rather Dupuis getting ice time than Cooke.

[AllSports4387]

Pavelec not looking too strong so far. Good thing for us. Gotta keep attacking him now.
