He will be missed in many ways.

Yeah - the fan base is underrating both Frolik and Brodie's contributions IMO.
The team is not as good or deep without those two on the roster next season.
However the reason you move Frolik instead of Bennett is because Bennett's likely $2M cheaper next year, has multiple years of control left, and is 8 years younger than Frolik. Not because Bennett is head and shoulders better than Frolik.
