According to the combine he's not very strong. Besides the pull-ups he only managed to do 2 reps of bench press.

RNH managed 6 reps of bench press and we have all heard the opinions on his physical readiness for the NHL.

If Bennett plays in the NHL this season it will be because he is ready skill wise rather than being "physically ready" IMO.
