I'd like to see them go long here, something like the 3.5 x 5 years mentioned above. Lifetime financial security for Bennett along with the opportunity for one big cash in contract if he can up his game.
He seems like the type of guy where having the team commit to him might make a difference to his play. (Eg Gio) obviously not expecting him to be a #1 centre anymore, but if he could grow into a good 2nd line winger from an average 3rd liner that would be a big help.
