Bennett isn't capable of playing with high IQ players at this point. This is obvious in his play with Jankowski and Jagr when he's running into them and constantly unable to get shots off that any decent player would be able to.
This kid belongs in a suit until he proves otherwise and it's getting silly that he isn't answering for it.

Bench him for a week or two and then sending him down on a conditioning stint would be my treatment for crusty old Sam at this point.

Why do we have to call it a promotion? To me it's just changing the lines to see if you can get a better overall result.
