Let's see:

6'3 / 205lbs

Team corsi goes way up when Drew Shore is on the ice (like, this guy is in Backlund/Brodie/Gio/Byron territory for this team)

Right-handed shooter.

Solid on the face-off dot.

One of only like, four players in our whole system that seems to be able to successfully run an offensive zone cycle (and of those, Monahan plays on a line where he doesn't do that much). That Ferland goal in the Nashville game was the kind of shot creation we have simply not gotten this season from the rest of the team.

His takeaway on the Jooris breakaway, game 1 of the Anaheim series.

Bennett is not a prospect. 4G 1A in 11 playoff games... Blues fans would love that production from their veterans.
