Goddamn right he is. Most under-rated player in the league. A fire hydrant could score 40 points playing with Jonathan Huberdeau.

But your whole "Bennett is a leech" narrative is getting tired.

Naww, its completely accurate. Bennett continues to play north-south Bennett hockey and cash in on opportunities from the goal mouth, off the work of others. Hey, garbage men have their place in the NHL. It would just be nice if people would acknowledge a garbage man when they one is action.

He'd produce just fine with Gaudreau or Tkachuk or Mangiapane. Three guys he NEVER got to centre for a significant sample size.

Sure he would. How many coaches, including Sutter, would not play him at center? Accept the fact that Sam Bennett was destined to be a winger on the Flames and he was never going to work his way onto a line where he could be of consequence. He fell into a really great situation in Florida, but he is not a play driver, he's a passenger who gains benefit of playing with an elite player who makes everyone on his line look good.

Heck, his little hot streak right now?
Hardly much contribution from Huberdeau.

Hardly much contribution? You should check the tape rather than relying on the scoresheet. The video presents a much different story. Huberdeau is the play driver on most of Bennett's points. The Legend continues.
