That bottom-6 should have Benning put in front the UN and answer to these war crimes.

Much of this subreddit defended Benning until basically his firing. Worst GM in franchise history.

I legit thought this was a pre-season lineup until I caught the date 💀

Remember when people were swearing up and down that Highmore and Lockwood were going to be essential parts of the fourth line for years to come?
Dark days.

That is so awful. And right after a playoff run.

Let’s not forget that this game took place after the playoffs had already started.

The joke is not how bad that roster was.
The joke is that we were capped out *and* had fewer picks than we were allotted—including not having first-rounders for *two years running.*
I fucking don’t understand how people defended Benning so hard back then. It was bad enough to have a gangrenous thumb acting as our GM, but to also be relentlessly gaslit by fellow fans?
