I am willing to allow for the possibility that Glen Gulutzan simply had no idea how to handle Bennett's development as a centre.

I am also willing to allow that Bennett's head had to be spinning from all the different roles he was asked to fill last season. 3rd line centre, 1st line winger, 3rd line winger, he was all over the place.

I think if Peters calls Bennett in June (or now. Whenever) and tells him "Sammy, we expect you to be the #1RW and play with Johnny and Sean from day 1", then the move to the wing can be a success.

I think the way you don't handle it is by saying "We made the playoffs with Sam Bennett as the #3C" and doing little/nothing to help him get better.

Bennett's not bad defensively. He's a very impatient player, likely because he doesn't think the game fast enough. Until he learns to play the game better, be as dominant as his physical tools would allow.
