But why we are playing Heinen and Bemstrom off wings? Heinen most of the career played LW and Bemstrom RW.

Add this to the long list of Mystifying Questions the "Top 2-3" Coach can't offer a Logical Explanation for.

Good to see Bemstrom up and in the Lineup,his production at WBS has been solid.

Same reason Rakell is playing center. Because Sullvian is so **** smart.

Bemstrom was also more than 1ppg in Cleveland the two prior seasons. Hasn’t really translated to the NHL yet.

Karlsson with his usual inept Defensive Play.Not even close to a reason to throw that pass there.

Lizotte with a nice quick shot off an excellent Read by EK to get the turnover and its tied up.
Pens with good jump and transition play here.

Ned giving up too much room and gets beat.
Not a good effort defensively by Beauvilier at all there.

That’s what happens when you don’t have a center out there.

Only way Fox doesn’t score there is if he just misses it.

Graves is never going to score.

He couldn't fall out of a boat and hit water
