In the latest “31 Thoughts” by Elliotte Friedman, he claimed that the Montreal Canadiens are reportedly interested in Sam Bennett. The Calgary Flames highest-ever draft pick has also supposedly had Anaheim, Philadelphia, and Tampa Bay express interest over the years, however, we don’t know how long ago that was.
The list of teams who’ve inquired about him through the years includes Anaheim, Montreal, Philadelphia and Tampa Bay. I’m not convinced the Flames want to trade him, knowing he’s 22 and could blossom elsewhere. Just something to watch, as he searches for a fit with a new coach and changed roster.
