Confirmed with Link: Sam Bennett and 6th (2022) traded to Florida for 2nd (2022) and Emil Heineman

[DCDM]

Absolutely in love with this return

 

[Dack]

OKG on life support.

Prayers for our boy

 

[User1996]

Much more than I expected

 

[Ace Rimmer]

That's actually a good return for Sam.

Almost like it's a good thing he rescinded his trade request quite publicly and repeatedly.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Good return, as good as we were gonna get anyway. Bennett putting it all together in Florida will be the least shocking thing to ever happen, but oh well.

 

[DomBarr]

Life of a Flames fan...we get full value for him and yet you still feel a little ripped off.

I'm fine with his destination. Would have been pissed if it was the Leafs or Oilers.
Good luck Sam, I hope he turns it around in Florida.

Emil Heineman Scouting Report: 2020 NHL Draft #76

 

[Boomstick]

Looks like we're giving up a 6th to Florida too.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Treliving is really good at selling players. Should stick around just for that I guess.

And good on Bennett for crashing HF. Fitting end for the highest draft in Flames history (until next season anyway).

 

[Ainsy01]

I love the return for the player. Hate the return for a 4th overall pick. You just cant miss those and expect to beat teams that hit em outta the park. Too bad,

 

[Potty John]

Kind of crazy to think Benny got the highest return besides Mantha. Not a bad deal by Treliving. Hopefully more good trades to come this offseason...

 

[Bounces R Way]

I'll always be a fan. Was clear he wasn't going to put it together here and needed to start fresh. Quality return for a player that probably wasn't going to be here regardless next season.

Good luck with the Panthers Benny, go gettem

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

This is how I am feeling.

93 must be in cloud nine, going from 4LW on a shitty team to 2C on a cup contender

Time to rebuild

 

[User1996]

I’m so relieved

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

My biggest disappointment was he couldn't put it together here. I really wanted him to be successful with us but it clearly wasn't going to happen. I hope he finds success wherever he goes cause I really like the guy.

He was a beast in the playoffs but not a great regular season guy.

That's the real deal breaker for me.

There is no chance in hell he is a 2nd line center for them or even in the top 6.

 

[JPeeper]

Good return for a player that will be out of the league in 3 years. I say 2 teams and 3 years and he is in Europe.

I like it. Zary is the prodigal 19 year old C/LW now, best wishes Sammy

Draft dynasty has a great video on Heineman. One thing to note is this guy seems like a nightmare for opposing defenseman.

He was also taken 6 picks before Calgary took Kusnetsov. Makes you wonder if our scouts really wanted him before Florida grabbed him first.
