I'm not blaming him for standing up for a teammate. I'm saying he is, and continues to be one of the worst 2 way players on this team, and someone that absolutely baffles me how he is on the powerplay at all.

He has WELL EARNED his 'whipping boy' status.

What the hell call was that??

So now a player doesn't have the right to the ice ge is standing on??

Why did they wait so long to blow the play dead?

[Sidc3000]

Not sure why the officials allowed that to go so long. 

[Wyldnwoody44]

When did Daughtry start coaching the Caps? 

[SABRES 0311]

[Sidc3000]

I feel bad for sendin. 

[Carmel Corn]

Hmmm, should have been some kind of hooking call on the Caps there.....Benson breaking in on goal

On second thought no....looked just like a shove to his back

That would have been a highlight reel goal for benson. Watching his last first goal last season live was great

[Believer]

Nice effort Benson

[Brawndo]

Benson was crossed check on that 

[pi2000]

Benson just not big and strong enough to stay on his skates.

Nice try tho.

Cross check.  Good on Benson for staying with it and getting the shot away.

[SwampD]

Someone else may have gotten a crosschecking call,… I think.

[Carmel Corn]

Grade A scoring chance there for the Caps

[Porous Five Hole]

I was as anti UPL as anyone here,  but he’s continuing to prove me wrong.  And he’s having himself a game tonight!

Benson isn’t allowed to generate a penalty against our opponent until his mustache fills in.

So in 2027 hopefully 

[Night Train]

Another opportunity to kill off their own PP.

I understand what you’re saying, but his absence on his line that created a goal the very next shift is equally noticeable.  

[Carmel Corn]

PP passing is simply too slow and off-target....awful

[bob_sauve28]

So Benson wasn't cross checked on that break away I guess 

[Stads]

All our PP does is give the other team's star offensive players 2 minutes of rest

[Wyldnwoody44]

The Fing drop pass and no movement, HOW can they not fix this 

[mjd1001]

Ok, tie game. They scored 2 goals which isn't a lot but its one per period. They aren't LOSING.

Yet for some reason this seems to be one of the most boring, un-eventful games of the year to watch for me so far.
