I could see something like the contract Turris signed with the Sens at 5 years around $3.5M. Bennett brings a needed physical element and still shows flashes of scoring ability.

Thanks to the trade with the Hurricanes the Flames now have 5 players picked in the top 6 of the draft in the years since Iginla was traded. If Lindholm, Monahan, and Tlachuk maintain their scoring rate it is okay that Bennett isn’t a top line scorer.
