You need players that produce in both the regular season and the post season. Full stop. Consistency is the most important thing a player can have working for them. I can forgive 10 off games a season, but not 70 and then turn it on for 5-10 games in the post season. I like the way playoff-Bennett plays, but he has to play that wall all the time. If he can't, and can only bring that for short stretches, then move on. Bennett is basically our version of Cal Clutterbuck, who manages to play a physical and annoying role most every game. If Bennett can't play that same role with the same level of consistency, then move on and bring in a guy that has some consistency to his game. Let's not even talk about pay, as that is a bad topic for Bennett.
