CommonDreads Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 So since Bennett was our only RW not named Palmieri or Noesen, we're signing or trading for a RW, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 So we're starting to look like the Oilers pre-16-17. A lot of fast, young talent, no defense and a couple old guys. Not very competitive. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moustic Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I kind of really like BB8... But hey... That's life. Just I don't really get the last few days and decision from Shero (ok... I kind of get the Boyle one) Intrigued so far.. Before being worried in the next Few days if things aren't getting more clear.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but not nearly as talented or asset rich to swing a young forward for a potential franchise d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefiestygoat Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I definitely agree that the whole Bennett in NJ experiment ended up not being great asset management. I would've liked to retain him but I can't get too upset. Seems like another player that will put up solid possession numbers but never find the back of the net. I trust Shero's longterm plan anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Don't like letting Bennett go, while I get why it might've happened, they're just not likely to do better either internally or via the free agent market. This whole 'getting tougher' stuff has its downside and this is one of them - you lose out on good players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitico12 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Beau Bennett was horrendous. I would rather have Zubrus back in the fold than Bennett (just to give you an idea of what I think of him). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaffleFries Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 As much as it is going to suck to see shatty go to the rags (which I fully expect to happen at this point) I whole heartedly respect someone who would put their own enjoyment and aspirations above money. With him being a rags fan growing up in rags territory I can only feel admiration towards him for even considering the money aspect to be secondary to what he actually wants. Kind of sucks to be the devil trying to tempt someone with money to put their dreams off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
