I think people need to relax about Benoit. The team brought in two new defensemen, so they will spend a few games trying different combinations. It's hardly a big deal, especially against a lower-end opponent like Philly.

Except this is Keefe. He will continue to juggle lines even into the playoffs. No one will have chemistry, confidence will be lost, and he will scramble until we’re eliminated.

Like seriously what contender doesn’t know what their bloody lines are by this point in the season? We don’t know a single line or pairing! And this isn’t new.

And wtf is this server maintence time? Why is the start and end times different time zones? Are the NHL refs running this place?

5 AM EDT - 9 AM GMT are the same time but in different time zones. That's when the server maintenance begins.

Brodie needs to be fresh for the playoffs . That's the only reason people are upst also Benoit has been one of our better dman.

I understand the rest point, but the reality is that the games off will happen right at the end of the season. Still too early.

This break was much needed for the team. Hopefully they get rejuvinated again

This is also another PSA about the seaosn being too long. 82 games is ridiculous for NHL players

Personally I'd take less regular season games (about 70 odd only) and more playoff teams and games. But am pretty sure owners wouldn't wanna lose the extra revenue :dunno:

It’s a no-win with Keefer. Pretty obvious how much better Tavares plays with grinders on his line. The issue is the LW spot, Bertuzzi has just been murdering any line he’s been on…

What should the lines be?

You could probably enter the names into some AI randomizer and come up with something that makes more sense than what Keefe is doing. The D choices and refusal to keep Tavares away from Nylander are infuriating. Marner is out he should be experimenting or keep things the same as last week with Robertson in Marner's slot. But I guess we'll have to see if things work out tonight. We win and I will eat my words.

I don't mind Benoit sitting right now. They have to give the new guys some time to gel. The cream will eventually rise and they have some control over his next couple years if he ends up the #7 guy for the season.

If Keefe got axed, we all onow where he’d end up, and no they won’t be a contender………

A tired Benoit is still leagues ahead of a fresh Brodie, that guy will end up being this years playoff goat, and in goat I mean the reason they lose…….

I don't love us spending assets to sit a player whose performing well above expectations in Benoit. It's not a good message.

Gregor has been terrible, at least he's sitting. Holmberg is a much better player and offers much more value

Keefe’s a demotivating coach, sucks the life out of the player and in response the team…….
