Winning a Stanley Cup is aided by having three full years of Sam Bennett making the league minimum and significantly overperforming.

I don't know man. If we play Bennett the next 2 games and we dispatch the Canucks in 7, and Bennett plays Monahan-esque, you would sit him in the 2nd round?
The beauty of the playoffs is anything can happen. I would not throw away that chance at glory this year for potentially saving cap space later.
However, it all depends on how Bennett plays, or if he plays. I trust Bob to make the best lineup decisions.
Having said that, I doubt Bennett plays against LA. If we clinch though, I'm almost certain he'd get a crack at the Jets.
