My theory anyway.
Been thinking something for a while about Bennett and Johnny

Gaudreau is somehow shooting the puck way harder and quicker release this season.

To me teaching bennett to shoot better may be an easy fix, I think his shot is the worst part of his game and he probably needs to do some practice with the guy who taught johnny to shoot better and I would imagine Bennett's goals will go up.

currently his shot is just a little slow to get off and weak compared to his physical strength.

You should be able to teach wrist strength and shooting
