Bit of a chicken and egg thing. Ferland is on the top line because of the departure of of Lindholm, and because he is on the top line and getting PP minutes, he has been put in a position to score more than Bennett has.
Bennett on Carolina's top line would likely be doing equally well.
Anyway, back on topic, I am very pleased with how the Flames have been doing so far this year. After the pre-season China trip, they have won both games at home, are 2-2 on the road, and after playing 4 games against teams I consider to be playoff contenders, they have won 3 of those games, 2 on the road. If you had asked me before the season started if I would have taken a 3-3 record after the first 6 games, I would have said yes, considering the schedule and the quality of competition, but the Flames have done better than that. Hope the keep up the good work tonight against Nashville!
