What was wrong with the Flames organization on April 21,2021?
That is when they traded Bennett for a 2nd round pick.
Bennett was consistently: 1) the best Flame player in the playoffs
2) apparently not good enough to play in the Flames top 6 for more than 2 games in a row.
He has gone through 3 coaches in Florida (Quenneville, Brunette and Maurice) and has been a great player for all of them. Maurice does not have a stellar record with under achieving star players.
It would be interesting to see the post trade analysis by Conroy on why the Flames messed up Bennett so badly. Who besides Conroy had a voice on the Bennett dilemma and are they still in the Flames Organization?
Also heading into the Kadri/Huberdeau/Mangiapane mess and how the new coach plans to manage them.
