I guess it depends on what a "middle" forward means.
this past season 30 pts tied you for 210th in NHL scoring among F. Thats solidly an average 3rd liner I suppose. Bennett was 235th among forwards this last year with 26. Tied for 300th overall.
If thats what Bennett is...so be it, but if you can use him in a deal to upgrade you do so in a heartbeat, because for this Flames team to be better, he (or someone who replaces him) must be much much more productive than that.
