Why the F are they plugging Derek Ryan into this confusion?!? He's a 4th line C, that's his ceiling, though he's shown the ability to fill in up and down the line up when needed for short bursts when injuries arise.
I just don't understand why Bennett is on that 4th line, or how this franchise views the value, role and "meaning of success" for that line. It's frankly idiotic.
They should just trade Bennett already. Their handling of him is laughable.

I agree. Ryan is a solid 4th line center and that's it.
Bennett is way better off on the wing than the 4th line center. They made their choice to move lindholm to center and kept Monahan and backlund. Bennett would have a career year on backlunds wing imo. Let him play with him for a honest stretch to see what he has in him
