It's no secret that I was a pretty big fan of Beau Bennett's ability to make light of his injury woes before the season started. The thing is, it's easy to be entertained by humorous admissions of fragility when said fragility isn't having an tangible impact on your team during meaningful stretches of the season. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little bit worried that the bloom would come off Beau's rose when he was watching from the press box after fracturing the roster's depth the first he was helped off the ice. 
Fortunately, the health concerns that have become a source of comedy have yet to become a source of frustration.

For that reason I'll continue to laugh along with every retweeted photoshop as long as the target of it isn't posting it from a hospital bed. I can't say I will find them as funny if Beau Bennett is on the IR, and that's mainly because he has proven to be a solid contributor to the lineup since being inserted into it. That might sound like a glorification of a player who has all of zero goals on the year, but I actually think it's quite a compliment to say that he's been able to stand out in a positive way despite finding new and improved ways not to score. Years of watching an offense more fruitless than Dustin Byfuglien's diet probably has me hardwired to find the good in players that can't find the back of the net with the help of their WAZE app, but I stand by my opinion that Beau Bennett's playing some damn good hockey recently. I want to say that being able to finish at a level that didn't give Jacob Josefson's miserable shooting percentage some excessively depressing company couldn't hurt, but with Beau Bennett who is say what is or isn't a necessary safety precaution?
