In a heartbeat. Murray is a proven starting young goalie with a good contract. Bennett still may pan out. But right now he's a third line centre on a team with solid players and prospects at centre. And going forward, it'll be way easier to bring in other centres through the draft or via trade or FA signings than a starting goalie.
Sure it would sting if Pittsburgh plays Bennett with Crosby or Malkin and he lights it up, or if he centres a third line with Kessell and has success that way. But the Flames need a goalie badly.
