Look bigger picture.
Bennett is an RFA at the end of this season.
He’s likely to be selected by the Kraken or potentially not even qualified - so probably not feeling a lot of loyalty to or from the Flames right now.
It’s tough to get a bigger contract on his next deal if he’s playing 4th line minutes with no offensive opportunities.
His agent thinks he can get those opportunities on a different team, which could lead to a bigger payday on his next contract.
Not that hard to figure out why his agent would be looking for more opportunity for him.
More offensive opportunity is the best way to get him another contract, either on this team or on another team that’s willing to trade for him.
