And that is without taking into consideration any of the young players stepping up and taking a run at a position. Bennett is a one trick pony and if he isn't playing that physical role all the time, he isn't worth having in the lineup.

I don’t agree with this at all. Simon, Nordstrom etc are not pushing Bennett to the press box. I doubt any of the young players make the team any way. I would be surprised if we ever see Sam Bennett as a healthy scratch
