I understood the urgency over the past couple years to have Bennett at C when Backlund and Monahan were the only really good centers in the organization and knowing how important it is to be deep in the middle, but I think that's changed now that Jankowski is panning out beautifully at that position. They actually can afford to move him now, but won't, which is in turn holding the other center back from being where he belongs, in the NHL. They can kill two birds with one stone (that 1RW and a good young 3C), but prefer to continue to toss tic tacs at a single bird..
Arg, this management sometimes.
