I heard a rumor that the meeting was about opening and closing the bench door for teammates......what to do and not to do. Also there was something in regard to a "me too" movement for water bottles.

Not sure why that would be an issue, great restraint was shown towards the water bottles last game....

Not confirmed, but sounds like Dube may be in tonight's lineup.

Leave chuckie alone. He was able to draw a penalty last game by letting Chabot toss him around. That's a win in itself

Hey
Was that why you guys brought Dube back....?

Well I for one hope they got that sorted. Tkachuck messed that assignment up the other night.

Next time he takes a run at the water bottles I want to see a total yard sale. Fully commit.

Wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't get a call from the league for that hit.

Over all way better game. Were actually hitting and holding the puck.
Johnny got his touch back?? Last year just an off season??

Markstrom, dang can't say enough how awesome it is to have a solid tendie finally.

Wonder where Bennett will end up going? Don’t think we will get that much for him to be honest.

Pixel Shooter · #**220** 01-30-2021, 08:25 PM

Markstrom solid. Nice shutout. Man tkatchuk and backlund and add it Bennett crapped the bed all game. Take the 2 points

Trochu · #**221** 01-30-2021, 08:30 PM

Nice to hand them their first regulation loss.

roper1 · #**222** 01-30-2021, 08:50 PM

Bennett needs to eat popcorn in the press box for at least one game. Period. It's happened to much better players than him.

Love playoff Bennett, hate regular season Bennett. So inconsistent, all we can hope is we get something decent in return.

Is there a rumor they are shopping Bennett?

I like Bennett, get annoyed with some of the penalties he takes sometimes, but overall, like the heart and effort he brings. I wish they'd give him 5 games with Johnny and Monahan though. Seems they don't want to trade him but throw him on the 4th line, get upset as he's not producing, and won't move him up, but he's not going to produce on the 4th line. Why does Levio get game after game on the 2nd line, cause his 1 assist in 7 games is so amazing? If they're going to pay him $2.6M give him a chance or trade him.

Pixel Shooter · #**226** 01-30-2021, 10:05 PM

His agent requested a trade

Maybe McDavid wants his old peewee line mate back. They are trying with Draisaitl and Kahun, why not McDavid and Bennett?

I agree with giving him some time with the upper lines, he has shown he can do things. Just so dang inconsistent, that said maybe he doesn't try as hard when down lower. I do think he is good for the team but would like to see more from him regularly. Even hitting guys, sometimes he is flying and crushing guys, others just floats around.

gordfishing · #**229** 01-31-2021, 05:02 PM

So #93 is part of the best line during the Edmonton playoff bubble, when they return to regular season he isn't even given a cup of coffee on either of the top two lines, I would be ****ed too, but I did notice he had 15 plus minutes last night
Give him 20 games with Backs and Chucky and then evaluate

I don't really think the coaches have used him right, I believe this is the last season of his contract, He just wants to impress to get another contract

I don't blame him for wanting more

I think he would get more if he were more consistent. In my opinion we are fairly deep team and if your so hot and cold, you drop down the line.
Monny and Johnny had off year last year and they are now second line. Happens
All I hope is we get something good in return. We will see. If he could be playoff Benny all the time Boom he is awesome, but he is not.

Trochu · #**231** 02-01-2021, 11:20 AM

Nice little plus, Pierre Luc Dubois will likely miss the next three games.

Gotta say. Pretty solid effort.

Rig-Rat · #**239** 02-01-2021, 08:34 PM

Man there was a stretch in the third, I don't know how we didn't score like 5. Crazy but gutsy win. I liked that effort.

Just finished watching.

-Did Dube get a penalty for getting hit?

-Why didn't Ward call a timeout near the end there? Players were clearly winded...

-Is it just me, or is the almost stopping, aka Wheeler's shootout attempt, kinda lame?

Great game though. And once again, once out of the 1st, entertaining game to watch. Think Hellybruck more than made up for that goal, which was hilarious, with his play in the 3rd.
