Looking at everything, I don't know how anyone can claim "bust" without acknowledging their own lack of patience/understanding of the draft postion.

I'm pretty sure "draft year" refers to the season immediately preceding the draft in which a player is selected. Sam Bennett's draft year would be 2013-2014.
It's worth remembering that this season is, for all intents and purposes, his draft+3 year since the injury pretty much wiped out his draft+1 year. The guy lost a season of development, and couldn't go to the AHL upon returning. While disappointing, Bennett's development has hardly progressed under ideal circumstances.
