Ideally for sure ...
as I said though, the NHL on average isn't that productive. 33 points last year made you the sixth best forward on the worst team. But your point stands it would be great if Bennett started to finish his chances and pushed to a 35-40 point season.
But if he doesn't he's still the best fit I've seen on that second line with Backlund/Tkachuk in his present state.
