I left CP for about a month. Come back and realize we are still debating the same thing

after taking a month and thinking very little about this stuff, I tend to think that GG's system just isn't NHL calibre, and all - in - all (of course anyone can find an exception to any blanket statement) Flames non-elite players performed worse than they did under Hartley.

There has to be something for Bennett to go from the forum's darling to the whipping boy and im pretty sure it wasn't that he became a bad hockey player all of a sudden between hartley and GG.

Bennett will be just fine. Let the kid come in hungry and hopefully a more hands-on coach in BP will have a positive impact on his confidence
