Bennett is below all these players imo. Until he proves otherwise he was a poor pick in hindsight. Stop the excuses and #freejanko
Players taken before bennett:
Leon Draisaitl - plays with Mcdavid
Aaron Ekblad - picked 1st overall
Sam Reinhart - plays with Okposo and O'Rielly

Players who are not obviously better:
Robby Fabbri
Dylan Larkin
Viktor Arvidsson
Nick Ritchie

Players picked below Bennett who are clearly outperforming him
David Pastrnak (25th overall) - plays with Krejci
Nikolaj Ehlers (8th overall) - plays with Little and Laine
William Nylander (9th overall) - plays with Matthews

Bottom line: your analysis is really silly. Jury on Bennett remains out. All it proves is that Bennett can't produce without good linemates. But the ONLY player in this draft that has proven he can do this right now is Ekblad!
