At 180 pounds he looked like a man possessed, under gully he would do this alot less albeit bigger and stronger.
Daryll would force Bennett to go back to playing like he should be, all out every shift. Crash the net and play hard along the boards. Bennetts shouldnt try and deke out four players(he has tons of skill but shouldnt focus on that aspect of the game). If he wants to be successful again he needs to be the player he was when he played his first season here.
Sutter would promote this type of play.

Completely agree, both Tkachuk and Bennett would have an identity, both would learn what it takes to win at all costs. Sutter would have them both playing with a chip int heir shoulder, snarly and aggressive. Sutter would have probably have a short shelf life, BUT would probably have them playing for a CUP and these guys would be completely different players with experience.
