This post has logical fallacies.
First, Bennett plays defence adequately enough to be a forward on the PK, in which he has to take the middle of the ice equally with his co-forward.
Second, it's not necessarily the case that a player can't do better at C than at W. It will depend on where they are comfortable, where their skill set lies. I just know that I see Bennett trying to carry the puck to the middle, and not rush down the wing. My point, I guess, is, that Bennett has grown as a player, and perhaps the flaws from previous seasons that kept him from being an effective centre have been addressed.
