Maybe a contending team can afford to have him for 2-3 years and then live with him during the rebuild years. But that's not the Flames.

Bennett is the type of player a team with an open Stanley Cup window signs that will be willing to accept short term gain for long term pain. That is not the Flames who would be simply accruing long term pain by signing Bennett to a long term deal.
