Really stretching it with the mudslinging there.
You think Backlund and Tkachuk didn’t like Frolik too?

It's not mudslinging or stretching anything. It's just an obvious point. You do not know how the Flames end up with their lines, and what goes into it.
If Backlund says "I really like playing with Mangiapane" and Ryan says "I like playing with Lucic", then that stuff is likely going to matter. It's not mudslingling against Bennett.
But of course, just because he's a nice guy to hang with doesn't mean he's the greatest guy to play with. Even the fans can see he's a bit selfish with a hockey IQ on the lower side, who doesn't help bring anyones career numbers up. Doesn't mean anyone hates him, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's basically no ones favourite linemate.
