Well 2 years ago he matched his career point totals and last year sent a new high, so this is a reasonable belief to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indabuff Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Missed the game but sounds like many are for Benson sticking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very legitimate case could be made that that is in fact the case. Nice call. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Well, Ryan Johnson made a few blunders, and he's made quite a few this preseason, but still: I was worried he'd be another Pysyk at best, but he has much, much more game than Pysyk had. He can handle it better, he can skate with it better, he can shoot it better, he's a better passer and he has much more confidence with the puck on his stick. Now, of course, he needs to learn to make the right decision in the d-zone vs NHL pressure consistently. There's no guarantee that happens, of course. He'll need patience and good coaching in Rochester. I could see him becoming a mainstay in the top 6 though and maybe taking Joki's spot if Joki doesn't raise his game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he plays the majority of the games in Rochester with at least one good taste of the NHL. Things will slow down for him and decisions will improve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago with Bedard is happy. Columbus with Fantilli is happy. Anaheim with Carlsson is happy. But after that, right now with expectations and recency bias, I think a bunch of teams might look back and be like "$#!+" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hockey, not football. It’s about flow and timing and chemistry. Plus, there’s being in practice/shinny shape, then there’s game shape. They have to play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
