pastajoe Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 Really wish they’d sit Tage and insert Kulich. He looked like he was dogging it. Send a message. Quote

This is a super short recovery back-to-back. 2 minutes ago, Brawndo said: Kulich taking warmups So where is Krebs on the depth chart now? Quote

#freejame Posted October 5 Author Report Posted October 5 (edited) So Benson is either: A) Hurt B) Sitting because Lindy thinks he performed the worst of any forward yesterday C) Sitting because Lindy wants to give Krebs an opportunity to play an international team and he’s lowest on the totem pole whats most concerning?

jsb Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 Early season have to have a win game. Let's Go Buffalo. Surprised Benson is out, does Lindy think he's banged up or sending a message?? Quote

It's better. Almost acceptable. I think it translates to a better showing but ultimately a shootout loss. 4-3 Edited October 5 by Stoner Quote
Bangarang Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 Lindy sending an early message by benching the hard working, high IQ player with a ton of talent. That'll show everyone. 1 1 Quote

Benson being hurt. Hoping it’s nothing serious and they recognize this is very early in the season to have to play through some type of injury on a back to back with 5 days rest incoming. Quote

It should have been Thompson, and take out Samuelsson for Bryson. This was telegraphed in training camp. They clearly want Kulich at the 2nd line wing spot. Zach Benson deserves better than this organization. 1 minute ago, Bangarang said: Lindy sending an early message by benching the hard working, high IQ player with a ton of talent.

DarthEbriate Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 If Benson is a healthy scratch, then the Grand Ruff’s foul stench is already on board. But! I’d rather the crazy young wizard be a healthy scratch than injured and be in danger of missing multiple contests. Quote
Derrico Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 Wow we are an angry bunch to start the season. The loss pissed me off too but until I hear Benson was a healthy scratch I’ll continue to assume he’s not. Many clips of Ruff praising Benson all through training camp. Quote

Fine, we can wait to see if he's a healthy scratch... but I'm still sharpening my pitchfork and soaking my torch in pitch. Quote
#freejame Posted October 5 Author Report Posted October 5 Benson did get clipped yesterday in the game. Don’t remember what it was but think he grabbed his jaw. Quote
Captain Caveman Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 (edited) IMO the Benson benching isn't about anything other than trying to get that line to score some goals (unless he's hurt which could be the case.) Something wasn't clicking yesterday, and while it wasn't for lack of Benson's effort, maybe Lindy just is thinking Kulich may be a better fit there. I take it as a good sign that effort isn't going to be rewarded this year, it's about results. Edited October 5 by Captain Caveman Quote
WhenWillItEnd66 Posted October 5 Report Posted October 5 So I broke down and paid msg 10.00 to watch the game..... made sure I doubled my blood pressure medicine this morning!!! Think I have to listen to devil broadcast....grrrrr Quote

Though Marty during the intermissions is very good. He already does part time national work; it’s only a matter of time before we lose him to broadcast UFA. Quote
#freejame Posted October 5 Author Report Posted October 5 Sounds more like Benson is scratched. Quote
