Agreed. This is where Bennett needs to be a little bit.
I understood the rationale of promoting Bennett to C last year after we were out of the playoffs, might as well give him some training for the position he's ultimately destined for.
But right now, the team is struggling, and he needs a confidence booster. Playing alongside Backlund and Frolik will help in that regard, and give him some top-6 minutes. He's not suited for a bottom-6 role, that would be a waste.
