Extremely happy that we managed to get Bennett!!

Most rankings I saw had him #1, he should fit right in with the kind of team we are building.

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
The return of Doug Gilmour. Welcome to the team, Sam, our NEW future number one center. I'm so freaking happy.

Ridiculously awesome that the Flames got Bennett at 4. Just crazy.

The type of player the Flames really need. It was really a no brainer pick for the Flames.

so we ignore the OHL for many, many years and then take 2 OHLers at 6 and 4 within two years

very happy with this pick. I wanted Reinhart to slide to us but Bennett was my 2nd choice. Can't wait for Monahan-Bennett down the middle in a few years when they hit their prime

Yayy, was happy with any of the top four, so glad we didn't Jankowski this one up.

I wanted to text Sam Bennett and say congrats but I don't have his number in my phone so I'll have to wait.

Flames have to develop him properly too, not rush him. He's the one player in the top picks that will probably go back to junior.

Thankfully based on Burke's history and Treliving's comments on how to bring young players along they won't rush them. Bennett will be brought along properly.

Great day to be a Flames fan.

So happy we got a center.

I would have been OK with any of the three, but I love the fact that we got the one with some much needed speed as part of his skill set.
