Ya I don't see Drouin's value being even close to Bennett's. Bennett had a strong playoff showing and has performed pretty well in his rookie season. I think almost everyone expects Bennett to only get better. He has proven he can play in this league. Drouin on the other hand hasn't lived up to expectations and has a lot of question marks now. I don't think that completely kills his trade value but I don't think hes anywhere near the value of Bennett anymore. Sven would be a better comparable. Not value wise but in terms of declining value because they didn't live up to expectation.
