He did have some production though. Kind of a flip of the regular season.

Jankowski and Neal were liabilities in that series, as were Hanifin and Hamonic so I'm not surprised Bennett was "awful" on any 5v5 metrics as that's who Bennett spent most of that series playing with besides Game 5, which happened to be Gaudreau's strongest game for a reason not independant of Bennett's play.
What we should be doing is moving Jankowski to the wing and returning Bennett to 3C where he minimally belongs, and giving him a pair of two-way wingers like Mangiapane and Frolik. It's something he's never had the benefit of in his entire career.
Which is also why, to address an above post, we do still need a Zucker because I do not think Bennett as a winger is to Calgary's benefit.

It's complete context.

If we're going to be pedantic, I would like to see the distribution curve.
