I wasn't trying to blame the flames. In fact, in both scenarios I think the blame lies squarely with the players, who were both given solid opportunities here but did nothing. Bennett is more frustrating because he seems to be playing just differently in Florida. Like he did in the playoffs but all the time. Annoying as F as a fan. 1 additional productive play driving top 6 centre is what we have lacked for years, and both of these guys could have been it.
