It could be that.
It could also be Bennett getting his arms up to defend against the impact, and not caring about the impact on the other player (something more guys should do, frankly) and making sure he got an extra shot in.
I lean more towards the second camp because Bennett has to have seen Marchand coming well before that, it’s why he goes to release the puck when he does.
And I have no issue with it.
