Bennett is skilled. From what little I've seen
- His backhand is very advanced for his age. Both as a passer and shooter.
- His hand-eye-coordination is elite, even during intense chaotic sequences where many would give up on a possession, he can complete plays calmly.
- His first step with the puck is dynamite. This will be his bread-and-butter in the NHL as a playmaker/puck handler.
Really, if you ask me my concerns over Bennett, it's how quickly he can adapt to this team's disciplined, no-penalty play and how quickly he can be a Selke candidate (
) . Not whether he's capable offensively.
