If he was 5'11" and 10% faster would have gone top 5-7. He shouldn't of been there at 13.

Benson is 5'10" 170lbs. That's Sabres training camp measurement. Combine put him at 5' 9.75" and 170lbs. He's not fast but he's quick and more importantly very agile.

There were some draft ppl that had Bedard, Fantilli, Benson, Carlsson, Michkov as their top 5 in that order. The March consensus rankings I have from the athletic have him as high as 5th and as low as 13th (pronman).

Honestly taking the ring to Mordor sounds easier and more enjoyable than the 13yrs of no playoffs.

He really should have been a top 5 pick. The skating speed is perfectly fine for the NHL and he's an absolute dog.

There was never much hope...

Well, I wouldn't want to disappoint you.

Gotta have heart. Miles and miles of heart.

Have you ever seen "Angels in the Outfield"?

There's no right answer and this isn't a trick. After the 3rd goal last night, I went to sleep. Saw the Benson goal in Twitter after I brushed my teeth. Got into bed and didn't think anymore about this team. I suppose I just care on some level because I'm here but also... I think I'm just bored. Honestly, I don't think I care anymore after 13 seasons of missing the playoffs.

Should probably call timeout. Either way, off to bed. Out shot. Out skated. Out worked. Out classed.
