Did Bennett grow with FLA? Because we traded him there at 25, pretty much the same age as Frost. I just have a hard time putting relatively young players into boxes. We got Sharangovich at 25, and he had a 31 goal, 59 point career season, the best season by a Belorussian, and I think he'll hit 30 and 60 again in his career.
I guess my point is that the growth of a player largely depends on the role he's given, and the coaching and preparation that goes into fitting that role. I'm cautiously optimistic that one of Zary and Frost takes a big step as a centre next year.
