Yeah, there is no way in my opinion he brings back anything of that level.
He is overpaid for what he brings and there is a good chance that unless he elevates his game substantially between now and the end of the season, the acquiring team may not even qualify him at that price. Any team acquiring him is probably looking at it as a possible 5-6 month rental.
The most I can see us getting for Bennett straight up would be a conditional 3rd rounder that becomes a 2nd if he re-signs.
Plus the team acquiring him would get to send a bottom-six contract back to the Flames.
