What excuse are you looking for, being made by whom?
More time. Better linemates. Not only wasn’t he a liability, he excelled. The observations and recommendations by a lot of people here were validated, simply by a new organization using the player.
Super complicated, even the Wizard and his hand picked coaches couldn’t figure him out
The argument now is not whether Calgary got as much as possible out of the asset, it’s just their degree of failure.
Even if Bennett retired tomorrow, this stint with Florida makes Tre look like the loser

If he retired tomorrow the pick and prospect we got back would make us a loser? If he retired tomorrow....
He played well when inserted into a lineup that was already doing very well and playing with linemates that were going great before he got there. His shooting percentage more than doubled in Florida to a completely unsustainable 15.4%.
And he still managed to finish this year with a reputation of being an undisciplined liability that cost his team games.
