Bennett plays on a line with one of the most ineffective offensive players in the league in Ferland who has 11 goals and 23 assists in 141 NHL games. Seriously switch things around and I'm not even sure Draisaitl matches Bennett's numbers with the Flames as he gets no complementary offensive help. Also lets not forget Draisaitl was picked by the Oilers because he was physically mature and most NHL ready player in the draft. He's probably as good now as he's ever going to be whereas Bennett isn't close to his ultimate potential.
