I’m all for the understanding that young players will make mistakes and need time to mature and adjust. But Bennett is actually hurting this team with the constant dumb penalties he takes. They’re always 200 feet from his own net and at bad times. Where in an extremely tight playoff race and need wins and right now Bennett isn’t doing anything to help this team accomplish that.
Now that I think about it I think we will be seeing Sam Bennett sit out the next game because he played a career low in minutes the other night in New Jersey and he takes a bad penalty that leads to the game winning goal against. He without a doubt is in the coach’s dog house right now.
