How can he look so lost for 80ish games and then play so well?
Maybe his assignment over the summer is to work on his focus. Hire a mental coach or something so that he can be effective in the regular season. Bennett plays a punishing style that is hard to play for 82 games. But if he can bring it for 30 to 50 games thats pretty good. Not many players in the league are playing at the top of their games for 82.
I thought it was an interesting point to bring up. How can you consistently raise your level so much higher and there not be a reason for the crazy breadth in performance.

This postseason has everything to do with the situation he is being put in.
Keep him at C and play him with Dube next season and he will have a good regular season, I have no doubt.
