Is it time to bench Lucic??? Come on! B's have control of puck for like 2 minutes, then Lucic touches it and off goes Vancouver, then he gets hit like a pansy at center ice then takes a stupid penalty. He's been like this the whole series. Hasn't done anything useful in the playoffs... -

Remember that time he setup Horton for the game 7 winner in OT against Montreal? -

Yup, he hadn't been brilliant before that. It's been downhill ever since, he did get those 2 goals in the last game against philly when the game was already won but hasn't been a difference maker at all, especially in the Tampa series and this series, just turns the puck over every time he touches it. Is he playing injured? What's going on with him? -

Who would the B's play instead? More than likely Horton is out next game at least so Seguin will play. -

Yeah if Horton was in Seguin would be the obvious choice but now it doesnt make sense to bench him. I didn't mean bench him for the rest of the playoffs either, just one game to light a fire under his @ss. He needs to be better, especially now that Horton is out, if we wanna have a shot at the cup.

You never should've said it to begin with but all is forgiven. I do think Lucic and Horton have been playing injured for awhile. It's the finals. If your playing without some sort of injury you probably haven't been working hard enough. Come on, it's Lucic that we're talking about here. I'll never question his heart or effort so to me,injury seems like the obvious answer.
