Bennett, a top four pick, versus Ferland, a 5th round pick. Hmmmm, not sure why people would be more patient with one than the other. One has seen continued growth and improvement, and the other has been headed in the opposite direction. I don't know why one guy would get more opportunity than the other? Maybe if Bennett started out on the farm and earned his way onto the team like Ferland did, people would be a little more patient? Bennett has pretty much been handed a spot and has never really lived up to expectations, let alone surpassing any of them, which Ferland has done in spades. Might have something to do with Ferland getting a pass, and Bennett not.
