I’d bench Simon and Sprong first too. Who else would you bench when our top twelve wingers are Jake, Rust, Kessel, Hornqvist, Pearson, and ZAR?
Is this rhetorical? I sure as hell wouldn't keep force-feeding Rust prime offensive minutes with the way he's currently playing, and I sure as hell wouldn't instantly think ZAR should be getting increased ice time when the team needs a boost offensively.
It's not like the "safe" guys are playing well. All the above I mentioned (plus Simon and Sprong) haven't been great for a lot of this season. Yet the "safe" ones are the two who get way more rope after a screw up.
