Bennett's fight was great to see for a lot of reasons.
I have felt that his game has been neutered ever since he had to sit for taking penalties. And not playing as aggressively and physically has reduced his effectiveness offensively as well.
The only good news for him so far this season is that his defensive play has been steadily improving. But maybe that fight brings his mojo back and gets him going.
If the Flames get Gaudreau and Bennett both playing to the level they are capable of, they make the playoffs without question.
