Bennett as difference maker can’t make up the -30 shot in goal differential
Weird take
Put Bennett with Backlund and Tkachuk all year and he likely exceeds Frolik production

That's kind of the point. Bennett playing amazing was not a Bennett that could steal a game or even help majorly change it to a win.
Right now he is what he is - a third liner that has an ability to show some serious jam and physicality when it matters. But not one that can light up a scoresheet and take over a game offensively other than a few one offs over the years.
The idea that he's a $4mil player right now is ludicrous and the poster took it even further saying he would be okay with $4.8. And none of that should take away from the work Bennett as put in and the results of a tenacious, physical third liner that every team needs. It's just his salary valuation that's insane.
