Torts is Torts but when more than one coach benches a player ..........it maybe the player! Or when the coach regularly benches all sorts of players... it may be the coach All joking aside, this is going to be really interesting to watch. I think Laine is what he is and no coach is going to fundamentally change how he plays. He's probably the best pure shooter in the game but can be really frustrating to watch when he's off.

I agree when team mates start getting preferential treatment then team unity usually falls off. The year the Caps won the cup Ovi was back checking and even blocking shots.

This comes as a result of an aggressive check from Josh Archibald of the Edmonton Oilers that sent Brannstrom into the boards. Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun announced the injury Tuesday morning.
