Benn over any of my centers?
I’m in the conference finals this upcoming week. I had hoped for Hintz to turn things around, but he’s still struggling. Malkin has similarly, and Pinto has cooled off. Should I pick up Jamie Benn in place of any of these guys? None are keepers for me next year.

Re: Benn over any of my centers?
You may have missed your window here, Benn has been on fire lately, 14 pts in his last 10 games. I'd drop Pinto for him. Jacques Martin's lines are all over the place as he experiments with his guys to maybe help out the next poor bugger behind the Sens bench. I don't trust Pinto's deployment or the Sens finish for that matter compared to Benn and the Stars.

Re: Benn over any of my centers?
Benn is still available, so the window is still open (as long as he doesn’t cool off!). I hear you re: Pinto. Do you think it’s risky to run with both Hintz and Benn as 2 of my 3 active centers? Or maybe it’s less risky than trying to trot out Pinto.

Re: Benn over any of my centers?
The way I'm looking at this is that I like Benn over Pinto down the stretch. Hintz, well, he's cold for sure, 1 pt in his last 7, but he's scored this year at a .81 clip and last year just over 1 so I'll roll with Hintz and hope he wakes up. Benn had a goal last night, Pinto was scoreless with almost 17 minutes TOI and a with the Sens popping for 5 goals. I know a lot of guys around here remain high on Pinto, but I've basically been saying all along he is a 3C, a good one, but a 3C. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe not.
