Did they say that? Did anyone suggest that?
20 years old isn't an excuse? Reminds me of the guys raging on Hamilton saying 22 isn't an excuse.

Yet you thank a cherry picked/false post by Misterjoji.
Thornton was a 0.75 ppg player at age 20, Bennett? 0.36 ppg.
Tarasenko at age 20, in KHL had 47 points in 54 games.
I don't really give a poop about the name on the back as long as they play well for the logo on the front. Bennett has not done that.
All the fanboys can defend him as much as they want to, but the facts are right there.
