C Sam Bennett (2014, 4th, CGY) II

[AcerComputer]

Difference is. Bennett was listed as a possible #1 pick. Reilly not so much.

Why so snarky, he was just stating a fact?

 

[King In The North]

Why so snarky, he was just stating a fact?

Don't see the implication on bringing up Reilly.

 

[Whileee]

Really impressed with Bennett today. He plays with lots of jam and pace. I think he's going to be a really good player.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Unreal game in his first game of the playoffs. He was probably the best forward out there on the Flames.

 

[cheeeko]

He looks exactly like I thought he would...eventually. So impressed with him to be this good already in the NHL. Always driving the play that kid.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

I can now see why they compared him to Doug Gilmour. The guy is a lunatic . Slow down out there. Sheesh the Flames need you scoring goals not bustin' skulls.

Great game though.

 

[stardefender*]

Bennett was an absolute BEAST tonight. Unreal game for an 18 year old playing his second NHL game in the playoffs. Set up the game winner and was standing in the crease battling when it went in.

Driving the net, throwing hits... unbelievable!

 

[Jabba11]

Incredible player. Bennett, Gaudreau and Monahan for the Flames future...is insane.

 

[herashak]

18 years old, wow. another 15 pounds and some more experience, watch out.

 

[Caged Great]

This team will win the stanley cup soon, probably not this year, but soon.

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Man, this guy is freaking awesome.

Thank god the Oilers took Draisaitl. What a gift from the hockey gods.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

Incredible player. Bennett, Gaudreau and Monahan for the Flames future...is insane.

I'm genuinely jealous.

Man, this guy is freaking awesome.

Thank god the Oilers took Draisaitl. What a gift from the hockey gods.

who saying Draisaitl can't beast in the NHL? he's played 2 games

for the record, I was leaning towards Bennett at the draft but was just fine taking Leon

kid's gonna be really good

Yeah, Draisaitl will probably be good too, but i'm just saying, i'm happy you guys took him instead of Sam.

Bennett seems like he was born for the Flames

 

[Nightfx]

Draisatl is a great prospect.

I don't think theres a prospect out there that's a better fit for the Flames than Bennett.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Draisatl is a great prospect.

I don't think theres a prospect out there that's a better fit for the Flames than Bennett.

fair enough...Monahan/Bennett is a pretty sick center duo...good mix of size and skill

RNH/Draisaitl will be good as well

 

[Gritty]

Who cares about Draisaitl! Lets talk about Bennett

 

[nik-]

Draisaitl is a fine prospect and I'm glad Oilers fans are happy with.

I wanted one of the Sams and am glad we ended up with Bennett. He's a great Yin to the Monahan Yang.

 

[Bullseyes]

Monahan, Gaudreau, and Bennett. The Flames future is so bright.

 

[MonaHan Solo]

When Bennett gains 10-15 more pounds, he will be unstoppable. The way he drives the net is insane.

 

[stardefender*]

Before he played his first NHL game Bob Hartely called Sam Bennett "A tiger waiting to get out of his cage".

He looked just like that tonight. So hungry for the puck with a motor that just doesn't stop!

 

[joeyabs]

When Bennett gains 10-15 more pounds, he will be unstoppable. The way he drives the net is insane.

Visually, I would agree

 

[Zirakzigil]

He had a great game. One of the best Flames players on the ice.

 

[Apathetic]

Who cares that he looked great in a playoff game, he can't even do a pullup.

 

[StreakingRed]

He definitely didn't look out of place or like he didn't belong. Great game for Bennett.
