I'm not sure where I sit regarding Bennett's abilities as a Top 6 forward or him meeting his 4th overall draft hope. The Flames have had him with Gaudreau, moved him from center to wing once it became clear he was going to continue to struggle down the middle and have tried putting him with a number of different linemates. I can't say the Flames haven't tried to be accommodating and patient if he does end up doing a 180 somewhere else.
