Bennett has been noticeable which is more than you can say for the rest of the team. But as far as playing actual hockey and showing any skill whatsoever, Bennett has been as bad as everyone else. The only guys on the Flames that appear to be capable of making a skill related play right now are Dube and Rieder. Everyone can't make a simple pass or head man the puck with a damn. Brutal play all around. |
Bennett has 6 points in his last 7 playoff games. Bennett being Bennett is what this team needs. He's an effective playoff player. His goal was in no way countered by the bull@$%^ call against him - that's your own personal bias shining through.
