What's a different building? 10 points difference in their primes? Maybe Bennett is a 80 point player and Poirer is a 70 point player?
Poirer was also stacked up against a deeper draft squad. Its tough to say where he'd be drafted this year. Poirer has also played at a level this season where he most likely have been selected earlier, if GMs knew then what we know now. He's putting up somewhat similar numbers to Domi (different leagues mind you), but Poirer is a rare type of player because of his sand paper element.
Poirer is bigger and plays on the right, making it easier to get minutes in the future for the Flames. That alone might give him higher point totals than Bennett on a 2017 (and beyond) Flames squad.
