The good news is I don’t see the Flames moving Bennett at all. I think management loves his style and they will continue to offer be patient with him. There is no way they move him for a 29 year old hot/cold goal scorer thst is going to cost $6M+ to retain for his 30’s.
Could Pacioretty play right wing?
Let’s say the Flames are able to move prospects and not impact their top 9 in a deal for Patches. This is how I would roll the lines.
Gaudreau-Monahan-Ferland
Pacioretty-Backlund-Frolik
Bennett-Jankowski-Tkachuk
Mangipane-Lazar-Hathaway
Brouwer
Stajan waived
The top 9 would be pretty deadly but considering the Habs lilely want 1st+Dube+Kylington
Not worth it for a second line forward.
