He'd be a 1st liner on the 2nd line. Just cause you have a 1st line caliber player on your 2nd line doesn't suddenly make him a 2nd liner or make his contract suddenly unpalatable. That logic doesn't really make sense.
PIT must be idiots to have a 2nd line centre making what, 8.7 million? Chicago must be the biggest dolts of all time paying 10 million to a 2nd liner!
In all seriousness we'll never be a threat until Bennett's line is consistently dangerous. He needs a 1st line winger arguably much, much more than Johnny and Mony do. Having Lucic on Bennett's line would be amazeballs!
