The value Bennett has brought to the team this year is off the charts. It's absolutely incredible how insanely under-appreciated he is by some Flames fans.
He's been dominant in basically every aspect of the game this season and while I know some will quickly be like "points...points...points! If he's so good where are his points?!" and to that I say they're gonna come especially if he plays with Tkachuk and Backlund the rest of the season.
Even if he ends up a 30-40 point player (he's definitely capable of more), he'll still be an incredibly valuable player to this team with the complete game he brings.
He's basically a better skating, less offensively gifted version of Tkachuk and the thought of them pairing up for the next decade (of course I know that is 99% unlikely) makes me salivate
