It's interesting ... when you look at the numbers this year Sam Bennett its pretty apparent that he and Derek Ryan are complete opposites.
Bennett is a high event player ... both ways
Ryan is a low event player ... both ways.
The other option at third line center Jankowski between the two
Bennett is the only "real" player to be positive in high danger chances though. The other two have missed too many games (Hamonic and Czarnik).
Bennett:
+14.2 / 60 minutes
-11.7 / 60 minutes
= +2.5
Ryan:
+6.6
-12.2
=-5.6
Jankowski
+10.3
-14.4
=-4.1
Bennett certainly drives more offence when on the ice, may be more suited to center the third line, especially if the 3M line isn't scoring.
