I think the rational posters understand that he still has time to show something, it just seems logical to try him on the wing at this point because of both his struggles and because of a want to see Jankowski at his spot.
One thing about the Scheifele comparison, while I understand there is something there, he did IMPROVE every year leading to the elite player he is today. Bennett took a step back in his second season imo and needs to show improvement this year otherwise people might actually have a point. Still think his best chance is playing the wing with either of the top two lines, along with getting PP time.
