Subject: BENCHING

To the fans that are talking about players being benched. I do feel that some players get benched more than others and it's noticeable. Earlier on in the playoffs, the ND series, the young players wouldn't be out there in the final minutes. Kyle Smeltzer was put out of the lineup for two games because he wasn't playing as well as he can. He came back after that and I felt he played much better. As for Michael Epp he was benched and even sat a game(I had heard he was injured as well) for mistakes that he made. Both Kyle and Mike have responded well to being sat, Smeltzer playing much more solid defensively and Epp coming out and getting his 2nd ever goal. As for the young forwards, they are doing a very good job up front playing a minimal role but doing their jobs. Trapp and Magnussen, and Zulyniak have done a fine job when they have been called upon. Trapp not bad with 4 assists the other night. I feel that the coaches have benched players that they thought needed to have a fire lit under them and it seems to work. WE ARE IN THE LEAGUE FINALS. Can't ask for much more....well...maybe the Royal Bank Cup. GO Mills GO
