But, when we're trying to stay alive in the race for anything at all, benching a center is not the best plan. I can see why he played. Expand Yeah I did not expect him to be benched, no matter how deserved it would have been. 1 Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 My guess is that JBD was trying to do too much himself, because nobody else can really create much. Bubs probably just wants him to simplify his game, give him and his head a rest knowing we need him at his very best to make a run at the NCHC playoff title. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 Everyone is looking at this from the "where was JBD" perspective. Allow me to change the perspective ever so slightly: Was JBD given a night off so someone else had one last opportunity to prove they deserve a slot on next year's roster. It is the time of year where these decisions need be made (to let recruits know if they should be making college plans or letting their junior teams know they'll still be there in the fall). Vision is seeing both what is and is not there. Quote

Expand This would be great if Berry was actually making people earn their roster slot for next year - We have seen no evidence of this ever happening with Berry. If he wants to have players prove they deserve a slot on next year's roster it would be the best news we could get. But the optics of JBD sitting while he plays a senior Captain who hasn't scored a goal in about 20 games and runs around willy nilly taking game changing penalties time after time. Seems like there is absolutely no accountability on his team and that is a big problem. We have a ton of dead weight. 2 Quote

I bet we could find posts on here wanting Yon to jump straight in after his senior year. MN HS to NCAA to NHL is increasingly rare. 1 Quote

Expand I’m not sure that’s such a bad thing given our forwards points production. If you’re evaluating someone, play them at their proper spot. Who knows we just might win a few more games playing 5 on 5 with a guy or two out of position vs two guys sitting in the box. Quote
