Bennett has played his faire share of time with Monahan and Gaudreau over the years and it just simply hasn’t worked. Their styles clash for whatever reason. That line sort of reminds me of James Neal with 13 and 23, just looks very blah.
It all comes down to Sam Bennett and the way he NEEDS to play. Less Kingston, more grit. The best he’s ever looked was with Lucic and Dube. Why can’t recreate that magic with an even better duo in Backlund and Mangiapane?
