I just don't think they're close in terms of overall potential or offensive talent.
Bennett has more dimensions to his game, but Duchene has always been far better offensively.

Duchene is a UFA in 2 years, so he's somewhat of a long term rental. I don't think the Flames are cup contenders, so using Bennett to acquire Duchene would not make much sense. Since Bennett is far younger and cheaper, so I do think he has more trade value. There is no reason to trade Bennett.
Sam bennett had 36 points as a 19 year old. Duchene had 41 points as a 26 year old...

Sorry but you cant cherry pick the stats you like to prove your point.
