The recipe is certainly there to make the club.
Bottom 5 team
Top 4 pick
CS top ranked forward
Stats on the # that make it each year
His tenacity
The really good news from a Flames standpoint is that they have other options coming in at the same time so there isn't that pressure to make it. They don't have their season ticket sales linked to proving the future is bright by pushing kids into spots regardless of how ready they are.
With Gaudreau, Grandlund, Reinhart, Baertschi, Klimchuk, Poirier (hopefully) at camp, they don't need Bennett to be the show.
Good situation.
