I find it so interesting how this discussion has popped up again after lucic and dube have a whale of a game on the third line.
Bennett is on pace for 19 points over 82 games. Lucic has 20 points right now. Derek Ryan has 29 points. 10 goals.
29 points would be the second best season of Bennett's career. Dube has 16 points in 45 games.
How would Bennett supplanting any of those guys make a material improvement to the roster?
I've always understood people sensing there was more there from Bennett in previous years but it's so weird to me to see this thread pop up now.
