Not happy or unhappy. When former Flames leave, be it Iginla, Byron, etc, I just can’t muster any real attachment to them. That’s just me. Even Gio, despite the handle. I just haven’t asked the mods to change my name to TanevforPM.

Would love to have the player that Bennett has become. Do not miss the player that he was at the time though.

I just don't know how you can he a hockey fan and not love Playoff Sam Bennett. This is literally the prototype for how you'd make a player play.

I've thought about this too....Could work out better for the Flames the way things are though. The biggest issue the Flames have had for years is complacency. I'd rather see the Flames come out of the first round with a win after giving it their all than coasting.

Hopefully, the Avs destroy the Preds, and then run into a hungry team in round 2. Maybe 1-2 extra losses in the beginning of round 2 will be enough to do the Avs in. If Edm gets eliminated in Round 1, and the Avs in Round 2, that will make for the easiest possible path to the cup for the Flames.

Not really but it is funny how the Legend is back to be a 3rd line player and not being all that useful.

Not to mention he makes $4.425mil/year now! lol

Being a 3rd line player on the Panthers is like being 2nd line on most teams.

He's also back to averaging 18 mins a game and being #2C since the playoffs started.

Yeah this is not a thing

Unless Huberdeau, the guy who was tied for second in league scoring, is a third line winger

I don’t know what this guy is on about

With all the Oiler-esque McBennett loving in this thread you would think he would be making 8X$8! lol

Well i guess you have to defend McBennett to the death since he is your favourite player in the whole wide world! lol

3 points in 7 games with 17:21 TOI.... smells like a 3rd liner.

Bennett is fine for what he's being paid to do. There's just a lot of hyperbole on both sides of the spectrum in this thread. The naysayers are way too discrediting of what he's doing, and the handwringers are way too positive to what he can provide.
