The set up he got from Leon where all he could do was fire the puck into the pads. Other than a wide open net, I don't know if a guy gets a better set up to score. If you can't bury that, that's a problem. It goes into the playoffs and the last half of the season, not just 6 games.
I don't know how much longer they can keep him on that line. At some point, you have to score something when you get top 6 time. I don't like the idea of splitting up the 3rd line. I am not sure last night was their best game but overall, that entire line has been very good. So you are left with promoting a Perlini or a Turris I guess. I don't see Benson as an option because he doesn't shoot or score goals much at all. His best junior season was his last where he had 27 goals as a 20 yr old which isn't a lot in junior. His best AHL season he had 15 goals in 68 games, he only score 2 goals in 19 games last year in the swiss league. The Oilers don't need another passer on Leon's line or McD's.

I'd try Foegele with Drai and Nuge, and put Benson in his spot. Let Yamo watch from the pressbox for a few games - he's got NOTHING going on for about 50 games.
I think you're right on Koskinen feeling pressured to play the puck more. Gazzola kept saying how much he works on stickhandling in practice. There's also the element where we "forgive" Smith for gaffes somewhat more because it's "part of his game" - whereas with Koskinen, it's just another problem for him.
