Maybe I'm drunk but that's hilarious to me right now. Bennet-Boner.
TBH I wanted Sam Bennett on our team at the very beginning of his draft eligible season. It was a game between peterborough and kingston and he totally took over. I thought wow - I hope we tank so we can take this bennett guy 1st overall, but if we dont get the 1st pick - I would have been ok with Ritchie - who was the other stud in that game. I still cant believe we got Sam Frikin Bennett at #4 overall...
What I like most about him is his tenacity and blue collar attitude tbh. Which is why I'm so excited about the prospect of him and Tkachuk playing together for the next decade.
