Someone put a lot of work into creating that

We win!

Benson is amazing. Him and Quinn together is nice to see 

[How Good Do You Think Zac Benson Will Be?]

At 18 he is a part of both the PP and PK

And right now he makes magic with Quinn and Thompson for even strength goal

Benson being used to kill penalties show how high the coaching staff thinks of him 

Yes!!!

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Come on boys, get the kill 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Benson has been better since Quinn returned. Coincidence? 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

That would of been a natural hat trick 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

My guess is Bryan Trottier 

 

What do you think? 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Yes!!!! He's a real star!!

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Nice rush there, pretty passing 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Entertaining game 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

That was beautiful!!

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Yes!!!

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

47 active NHLers with 1000 games? Wow

I guess it’s fitting Jeff’s 1000th game is a meaningless nothing game winding the season down 

It's a metaphor for the meaninglessness of existence. How life has no real purpose. Love fades, people forget, no one cares 

 

My beef jerky is good, though! 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Oof 

[GDT / Washington Capitals @ Buffalo Sabres Tues. 4/2 -7pm ESPN+ MSG & WGR Radio]

Let's do it! Beat the Caps! 

 

Mad Whales!

You’re right… Just read about growth plates closing by age 18… 

I grew another two inches after high school

I think his size is going to be a detriment in today's NHL. Nothing he can do about it. 

Doesn't bother Kucherov, right? 

[How Good Do You Think Zac Benson Will Be?]

In a bad season like this at least there is a few bright spots. Zac Benson is definitely one. 9 goals and 14 assists for an eighteen year old kid. He plays with grit, determination, vison and  finesse. Just wondering what everyone things this kids upside will be. 

 

When looking back ten years from now, will he be one of the best players in the league, a very solid player or just someone who gets by? 

 

Just guess work here, no need to preface remarks with, "Obviously this is just a guess..." No kidding. 😘

 

I think he's going to be super good! Top ten in scoring, all star and Sabre playoff hero
