Bennett has shown to be a good complimentary player who is a lot of fun to watch. He doesn’t need to hit 100 points to impress me, I don’t think anyone believes he’s turned into a McDavid-level superstar, so the posters trying to dispute that seem like they’re yelling at clouds.
History aside, I don’t know how you can watch the player and not enjoy it. Bennett in Florida was every single great thing about Bennett in one stretch, things we’ve seen glimpses of over the years. It was pretty cool and fun to watch. So far, still is.

I happen to think it is both possible and more fun to watch Bennett play and succeed while not also descending into a rage about how he was handled in Calgary.
