Lucic and Dube. It's the only combination that Bennett has shown a degree of success with over any period of time. Unfortunately that would be the 4th line and I think that is a waste of Dube's talent.
As to what team has ideal line mates for him, I don't know and really don't care. I don't hope for success for specific players (that's so Edmonton Oilers fanish) especially after they leave the Flames. Once they are gone I don't care about them and I don't wish them any success whatsoever. So the second Bennett is traded he's dead to me and I couldn't care less about him. If I was pressed I would say trade him to Detroit. No reason other than they are years away from the playoffs and I wouldn't have to listen to the ridiculous "playoff Sam Bennett" stuff any more.
