If the oilers pick Bennett I will honesty just #### myself laughing. When you watch playoff games in the western conference the hitting is just vicious. To beat the teams like San Jose, LA, St. Louis, Anaheim, Chicago you need size.
That's why I'm fine if the flames land draisatl. Really his only question mark is consistency. I think that can be taught if he is brought into the right group. He can use Monahan as a role model to become a complete player.
CP makes it out to be this huge gap, but honestly I don't. Do I prefer Bennett? Yes. Do I think the difference is substantial. No. And I think draisatl has more long term potential to be a superstar in the mould of a Ryan getzlaf or Anze Kopitar.
Big centres with skill are a hard thing to find. Brian Burke didn't find one in his Toronto days.
