I think Johnny's best protection will result from his playing with top players. He and Bennett have been a great fit because of Bennett's speed, shiftiness, hands and grit. Alas, Sam probably needs another season in junior to get stronger. Players haven't been able to key on Johnny because he can make seeing eye passes without warning that are apt to catch the opposition napping just as a certain Wayne Somebody used to do and guys like Bennett can both score and set up. I see them as a duo in another year.
