It baffles me how exaggerated Sam Bennet's rather pedestrian hockey skills are by some on this board.

Yeah this is my recollection as well. He got a couple goals by whacking the puck in after Dube and/or Lucic created a pileup. He was physical - good. It’s not like he was carrying plays. And his biggest PO games were in losses.
