Manning needs to be back in the NHL with someone. He's not a minor league player.
Could you tell us what you said that got you kicked out of your last game?

I think your concerns are valid, but we won't know until we give him a shot in the NHL. It could be a case of him not having anyone to set him up and always looking to make the pass, could be a case of him playing to the level of his linemates, etc. Or maybe it's just a case of him not having a good shot. No matter what the case, letting him toil in the AHL and pick apart his game from a statistics perspective isn't doing much good.So no Oilers games going on and not much to comment on.
I don't watch Bakersfield at all but looking at Benson its concerning to me that he has only 8 goals this season, and has only scored goals in 4 of the 39GP thus far. When he scores(rare) it seems in bunches but scoring in 1/10 games at the AHL strikes me as problematic. Additionally no goals in his last 8 and counting games.
When I last joined the fray about Benson people were telling me the goal scoring problem was something Benson was solving, he was finding ways to score, and he was starting to come on in that regard.
How much is this looking like a fallback season for Benson. All his totals pale in comparison to even his rookie season when he didn't score often either.
I raise this because the Oilers have some of the best passers in the NHL. They don't need a ton more of those. Some guys that could pot some goals would be helpful. Is Benson snakebit again or is there just not much here as far as goal scoring acumen?
Tyler Benson has 1G in his last 15GP. In the AHL.
Last season there was even a Tyler Benson dedicated thread, lots of posts, he was considered can't miss. Pundits around the hockey world were talking up his rookie season.
Well, year later and he's 33rd in AHL in pts, and 131st in Goals. hardly being mentioned now in the Hockey world.
What manning say
Wow, you didn't appear overly bright with all of your Manning comments before. Imagine how you must be looked up now with your unwavering support for your uncle.Manning needs to be back in the NHL with someone. He's not a minor league player.
Rishaug saying he did not use the "N" word.
Imama was being a royal pest and annoying little prick but this is a PRO league and players are expected to behave professionally within the agreed rules. Manning is no major loss. With Lagesson back... the Condors are okay on D. I said okay... not good at all though.
Not really. We all have colorful imaginations.Rishaug saying he did not use the "N" word.
Edit: Not that it matters what he said or didn't say, but it's human nature to be curious to know what term he used.

100+ points in 112 AHL games.So no Oilers games going on and not much to comment on.
