betts (the ranger) was a 4th liner but was the top penalty killer on the team. so in essence he was one of the better players considering he was the reason we had the 1st/2nd best pk in the league. so yeah it really sucked losing him considering caps had the best or 2nd best pp in the league. after betts got injured caps were 2-2 on the pp that game. SUCKS! but yeah brashear getting suspended was good for them since he sucks.
