I honestly don't see a lot of Bennett hopers guaranteeing anything to be honest.

Just some hope that a change in position (Treliving, Ward and Conroy have all pointed to this as well) could bring out more of the player than we've seen.

I've been finger crossing for years that the underlying data would lead to a pop only to be disappointed. At least this time around there is a) a larger sample size b) a move to center c) chemistry with linemates suggesting that time may be now.

He's spent 46% of his ice time over the last three years playing left wing on a line with Mark Jankowski ... a player that had trouble getting in the lineup over Zach Rinaldo in these playoffs.

The better linemates argument isn't a hard one to make in his case.
