Benny is clearly playing with a lot of confidence, which is great to see.

He still tries a couple toedrags / dekes each game, and seems to be about 50% with them. He's found a great fit in terms of linemates. Most of his points are "simple" hockey plays where he wins a battle and gives the puck to a teammate in a good position which leads to a goal, as if that's somehow a negative attribute. When he's out with Huberdeau and Duclair primarily you can see why that leads to some offense.

He's as physical as ever, separating opponents from the puck and getting the puck back for his team. He and the Panthers as a whole are a lot of fun to watch. It'll be interesting (and exciting) to see this season plays out for him.
