I wouldn't be looking to move Bennett just for the sake of getting rid of him. At this point being patient rather than just taking whatever we can get is clearly the better option.
However, if he was a useful commodity in a package to land a player that is more aimed at helping us win in the next few seasons, it's definitely something to explore.

So if we're focusing in on this window, would it not be wiser to trade non-roster players and a pick to get Hoffman?
Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Tkachuk - Backlund - Frolik
Bennett - Jankowski - Hoffman
Lomberg - Stajan - Lazar
As we don't have a prospect that has proven more or has more potential at Bennett's position within the system, which means we're subtracting a top 9 forward to add a top 9 forward...how does that improve depth?
