If Sam works on this and becomes consistently strong on faceoffs, he has a better chance of getting that time
Bennett was the Flames best face off guy last year of guys that took a good chunk of draws. He was 54.3% on 219 draws (Versteeg was 59% on 78 draws). Stajan and Monahan were back 2.5 to 3%.
