I don't want to realize the Flames some how botched the best pick they've ever had. If he becomes a 40+ point/impact player else where then holy #### we clearly have issues.
Maybe building around 'good culture' isn't a good idea for success. Maybe they need some #######s, some angry players, or just people good at hockey. Choosing someone because you believe in their personality and motivation to become better doesn't usually beat picking the highest skill played.

2 seconds for a 40 point player isn't a bad return at all
Unless Bennett starts putting up 50-60+ I think the Flames should still be pleased with the return.
