### How much time will Jamie Benn spend in the box this season?

| He'll be in and out quite a bit.                        | 48  |
| ------------------------------------------------------- | --- |
| Depends how muff he dives.                              | 87  |
| I'm too tongue tied to say.                             | 33  |
| Not much if he learns to hold his tongue.               | 40  |
| If he keeps his nose clean, he'll snatch the Lady Byng. | 147 |
