This is a debate that will seemingly go on forever.
I was a big Bennett backer when he was in Calgary, and in the end it's pretty easy to say he was mismanaged.
But the player has to kick the odd door down too.
It's not like he had one coach for 6 years that hated him.
I'd say the team put him in a position to succeed often, and he didn't claim it. An argument could certainly be made for a longer look in one of those opportunities creating a better chance to succeed, but he had opportunities.
