And no...there is no argument for qualifying Bennett at 2.5 million a year...none.
The team is not rebuilding....i think that much is painfully obvious. It doesnt mean there wont e changes. One, maybe 2 core guys and 3 or 4 of the rest.

Under Sutter he’s got 8 points in 15 games. He was our best player in the playoffs last year...there’s some reasons right there.
1 year at his qualifying number to keep the asset? I’m fine with that. What’s the alternative? Signing Josh Leivo again? I’m not confident in Treliving’s free agent work to actually improve the team - why would we believe Treliving could reasonable improve upon Bennett? He hasn’t shown this ability to date.
