I think 3 years and $2.75

Is there a team in the league that would realistically surrender a 1st round pick for Bennett?
If so, the Flames should be all over that deal hoping that club doesnt finish high in the standings.
It still feels like 2.75 is way more than what he provides, but in reality that is probably what it will take. I dont care about buying UFA years either as IMO he wont be anything more than a mediocre role player from here on out and those are guys you do not "buy" years of so they wont be lost.
