Just because I see people all the time talking about how much of a bust Benny is, I'll post some stats to compare others from his draft class come playoff time
Sam Bennett 6g 5 a, 11 points in 20 games.
Nik Ehlers 0g 7a, 7 points in 20 games.
Willy Nylander 3g 7a, 10 points in 18 games.
Larkin 1 goal in 5 games.
Reinhart never made the playoffs.
Drai (who went higher) is the obvious stand out, as is Pasta as both are over a point per game.
I'm not saying Bennett is a superstar either, it's still only 11 points in 20 games (11 of those games were during his rookie season), but he also plays like 12 minutes a game. My point is when the hockey actually matters, Bennett shows up and plays well, hits and puts points up.
P.S. I chose these guys 'cause they are the most talked about, guys like Fiala and Ritchie also have pretty bad playoff stats. Even Alex Tuch in 5 more games played than Benny has 1 more point.
