I'll give him this, Bennett has been vastly more productive from a pure points perspective up to this point of his career as opposed to Backlund. Prior to this season, Bennett never put up fewer than 26 points (4 straight 26+ point seasons) - Backlund had 25 pts at age 21 and wouldn't break 30 until he was 24.
