I can see how you think that. You don't like this team and its management I do .
Polar opposites. - VANTEL
It has some nice young pieces, but it's still an older middling team. So many homes to fill, especially when the Sedins retire. Just keep drafting and developing. |

No I never said that, I said he's a middle pairing guy. I compared him to Brenden Dillion, which is exactly what he is IMO. And you and I both like Dillion. Maybe a better leader though?
Edit: Benning is an idiot - LeftCoaster
Why is he an idiot ? Was it the Shink trade or Bonino one that pissed you off ?
Was it the bad increase he gave Brandon Sutter who may be our best forward or the drafting of Boeser?
I really do't get what people are expecting? |

Only six goals against, tied for first in the NHL. I said all summer long they didn't need to worry about scoring, they needed to work on reducing their GA to compete....so far that's how it's playing out. - LeftCoaster
I felt the same. Fix the D and the team will be confident allowing more focus on offense |

Is that not the way of a rebuilding team? We will be moving up 4 and 5 positions per year. We will not drop to 30th and suddenly up to 16 with a chance at 1. - Beatle_john
I'm not a scorched earth rebuild fan, don't like that. Just draft and develop, that's what I want. |

He comes across as one, my opinion. But I like his drafting |

Seems to be happening.... would like to see a slight more offensive push with talent like JV and Rodin in the line up |

It took me a while to come around to liking Benning; to trusting him. I really liked how he took charge of the Kesler situationb when he first arrived and made the best of a bad situation. I am loving Sutter and Gurbranson.

I also am liking that no one has mentioned how crappy the ref'ing was tonight. We could easily be running them down but we are not.

Granlund is looking good now, I was wrong
Same with Sbisa, I was wrong again
Jim is a lot smarter than anyone in here |

4-0 is a pretty good way to start it off |

Yup.....
You know what's more amazing about the 4-0 start huge room for improvement ...
Sedin line other then "the shift" (PP & OT seperate) haven't dominated or led the way with LE clicking and cashing in yet
JV and Rodin not in line up..... |

I am not sold on Sbisa just yet. My wish is Tryamkin gets in shape and in the line up to pressure Sbisa to step up.
