He just has until this point in his career never put it all together, or stayed healthy enough.


I think for as long as Calgary is trying to make the Lindholm-Monahan-Backlund centre situation a thing (which I have no issues with), I really do believe that Bennett is the best choice to stick with the Monahan line. 3 years younger than Leivo, and double the goals and points.
That meshes with David Struch's idea above, and is seconded by dino7c and TOFFIV. We have a cohesive plan that we are all happy with, to keep Bennett on Johnny's off wing all season. Huzzah!
