I would not like this.

hmmmm....

"Whelp, we better trade the best playoff performing forward we have".
Yeah, Flames need more Sam Bennett's not less.

How many forwards on this roster are you comfortable with winning a board battle?

Tkachuk
Bennett
Lindholm
Hathaway
Mangiapane

That's about it. Everyone else is butter soft.

Every year we see the same thing in the playoffs. You need players who are hard on pucks and have the will to win puck battles, yet during the regular season, you get the same people praising about soft skill and how great it is.
