In any of the youtube scouting highlite videos I have watched I have always come away thinking that Bennett has less natural skill than Reinhart and Draisaitl but uses his physicality to get similar results.

You're describing Jake Virtanen more than you are Sam Bennett, really.
Bennett's a very skilled player, not magic like Gaudreau but what separates him from Reinhart and Draisaitl is that he's willing to play physical and mix things up.
