His production shouldn't be a problem if you're looking at third liners and their pay cheque.
Everyone wants more out of the guy, but he doesn't need to be more productive to hold his spot as an average 3rd line NHLer.

That's the thing, Sam Bennett's production the past two seasons has been...
81 13 13
26
82 11 15
26
Which is a bottom tier 3rd liner.
Added to this is Sam now appears to have fallen to the 4th line, which means even less production, maybe he'll be the best (highest scoring) 4th liner in the league?
