It wouldn't surprise me to see Bennett given a shot at the #1C spot at the beginning of next season. I see him as a typical power forward and they do take longer to develop into their final style. He has improved a lot over this season, taken less stupid penalties and was driving play against the Avs.
I know he has been a winger for the past couple of seasons but that maybe as much to do with the fact that we already had, what management felt, was a strong selection of C and part of his growing process required him to play the wing and now he can develop his C skills.
