Why do you guys let one user, out of this whole board, create a Beau Bennett argument worthy of 10 pages? Majority around here wants to see what Beau's got and we all agree he hasn't been given a fair shake. It's well documented how certain players are treated around here.
Also let's just face it - Beau will be somewhere else killing it one day. Or he will be out of the league because Pittsburgh wasted all of his development. But stop letting one user speak for the board.
I've seen several posters keep arguing BB has to "earn" time with Malkin and Crosby (even though he did back in Jan).
Then when it's brought up that Kunitz, Comeau, Spaling and Winnik, have four goals in a combined 62 games, but they get gifted top six spots and PP time, the answer is like the Penguins go to handbook for shills: experience.
That experience isn't getting it done and this team needs to start scoring. BB is basically out the door, but this is about putting their most skilled players together so they stand a chance in the playoffs this year. It's all about the here and now and the roster they duped themselves into for this run.
You don't let one of your most skilled fwds rot away when your team lacks skilled fwds. A good coach tries to get him going, yet he can't even get on the PP except for a few seconds here and there. They have to get BB going if they stand a chance in the playoffs. They desperately need his skill.
