Ducks' Simon Benoit: Takes assist in win

Benoit provided an assist, three shots on goal and four hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.

The assist was Benoit's first point in 20 games, a dry spell stretching back to Feb. 19. The defenseman has been mostly a physical presence with almost no scoring upside this season. He has five points, 167 hits, 39 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 52 appearances.
