Yea Bennett for Stamkos doesn't make sense for the Flames, this team is by no means in win now mode. This seems like a horrible article, pure speculation off of one phone call. The reason that Brad got Hamilton is because he asked about him, nothing more than that happening here. Hell if I won the lottery I would throw a few bucks a week at another ticket, you never know!
Edit: Also I don't mean that Stamkos is a win now piece in that he is an older vet ready to lead a team to the Cup. I mean that win now mode is giving up young assets for developed players. I would much rather hold on to Bennett who might not be the offensive juggernaut of Stamkos in 6 years, but I could see him being even more valuable to this team based on the type of hockey he plays. And in those 6 years he will have grown with Johnny and Monahan where as Stamkos would be 31 and PAST his prime. No thank you.
