PP has looked good for 2 games thanks to Benson’s return and a complete departure from idle passing and hoping Thompson puts the puck through the goalie, net, boards, and the unlucky fan in the 1st row.

In my opinion he's improved his defensive play to a degree which does damper some degree of offensive output. Plus, he's played in 2 consecutive Finals so I'd guess wear is starting to hit him. That being said, like Crosby his stats will falter and spike for another 11 years probably.

Tuch hasn't been world beating but he has been improving since Game 1 Thompson always takes time to get going with goals; he was very active today and even threw his body around a few times. I'm concerned on Tuch's contractual future but to me Thompson isn't someone you touch, great contract and a great player.

It wouldn't be 1 for 1 but in regards to team impact we both lost our 1C. They lost a 1W we lost our 3/4D

Frankly its hard to say, both are chaotic manufacturing machines. Doan has been solid at worst all year and Benson has been great both games he's played.

Bennett tried but failed to run Dahlin,

Poor Benson, that puck somehow missed 3 people

End of their shifts, little energy

Power!

There should be but I won’t hold my breath

Pretty much and I believe so Guess the perk of being the defending champs.

So far we are seeing the team we wanted to see in this game; pressure on the puck and quick up the ice

Doan with the knee

Money

It would be a good start though
