Game breaking? Lol
You must misremember him as he was certainly a fast guy, who couldn’t finish on most of the breakaways he created for himself here.
But yes, he was a good fit on the team and did add speed. And better than Bollig who was not good

Like I said, I am still sour that Treliving picked Brandon Bollig over a future 20 goal scorer who absolutely has game breaking ability with his speed alone. He may have struggled to score on breakaways here, but first off, getting breakaways itself in the NHL is a difficult feat and secondly, he sure figured it out in Montreal where’s he’s been great there and even wears a letter.
Also, the only stupid comment is the years of bellyaching over Sam Bennett needing an elite coach or better line mates to take him to the next level. He’s had his shot with better linemates this season and finally he gets his elite coach and nothing has changed, still exactly the same player. Maybe worse because he’s on pace for the worst plus minus of his career. He’s been a colossal disappointment and he’s absolutely a big reason the Flames aren’t where they want to be. This could all be stated in the Sam Bennett thread, but I can’t even bump that thread anymore with all the overly sensitive Sam Bennett fans who may have to finally come to terms with what he actually is instead of blaming everything and everyone else.
