I agree with that part 100%.
He has been off this year, and coming off an injury. Plus a team with depth has to cycle players in ... that's why I don't lose it when Stone comes in once and a while.
Forwards 13/14 and Dman 7 can't just sit there for 9 weeks in a row and then be disapointed because they're not ready when an injury comes along.
But on production average Bennett was a 6.5 forward last year in the NHL (points per 60), not replacement level.
