Flames' favourite players growing up

His dad I’d guess?

Wasn't Bennett a huge Doug Gilmour fan? I believe he even modeled his game after him, and even ended up playing for him.

Sounds like Crosby to me.




Although, I'm not sure why Dreger would be surprised by that considering Crosby had just won the Art Ross in his second pro season.

His dad was a Gilmour fan and suggested Bennett wear Gilmour's 93. Bennett however definitely models the skill aspects of his game on Crosby, you can see it when he uses his edges on the cycle or throws a 100 foot stretch pass out of his own zone.

I was just kidding about Ryan.

I’m 29 and I barely remember Sundins tenure with the Leafs, granted I never paid attention. Pretty sure Monaghan was like 13 when Sundin left, wasn’t he?
