^Re Bennett back on the checking line....
I am not a fan of this move, but Bennett has not been on a checking line all year. The 3M is our "checking line". They face the hardest competition. What Bennett and Janko are supposed to learn is to produce consistently. Bennett has not been brought in to be a passenger on a scoring line. Bennett is being groomed to run his own producing line that other players want to be on. Whether or not he reaches that potential is a different story, but letting him milk points as a passenger on the first line to drive up his next contract is how you end up paying a German winger $8.5M after one season and maintain a team scoring depth of one line....
