The answer here is no. The only time he topped 20 minutes here was one (1) playoff game against Dallas last August, the 5-4 OTL where he got 3 points
He was often in the 11-15 minute range and you were even more likely to see him in single digits for ice time than above 20
He has played over 20 min 3 of the last 4 games with Florida
The funny thing is that way back, they bumped Bennett as a year 2 player from playing with Backlund and Frolik into the bottom 6, to give that slot to Tkachuk. Fast forward and the same Tkachuk has most recently gotten 3 assists in his past 10 games, disappeared when they have a chance to catch Montreal and try to get in, seems to have quit on the team despite being the highest paid player, and needs to be qualified at 9 million.
This innocuous little deadline trade has really resulted in egg all over this Treliving guy
