Why? Is the world ending?
I don't get this train of thought.
Bennett is already a 3rd line center on a playoff bound team, and is getting better every game. With Monahan and Backlund in place, Gaudreau and Tkachuk in place, Bennett and now Lazar in place (If Treliving and Burke's belief in this kid is on-point) - we have the makings for 3 great lines for a long, long time.
The Flames are poised to be one of the deepest teams in the NHL. That's a very good position to be in - and Bennett is a big part of it.
