Flames forward Sam Bennett reportedly wants a change of scenery.
The fourth overall pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, Bennett has frequently struggled to meet expectations in Calgary. He broke into the NHL as an 18-year-old in the 2015 playoffs but has never scored more than 36 points in a regular season.
Bennett currently makes $2.55 million and is set to become a restricted free agent upon the conclusion of 2020-21. Through seven games this year, he has yet to score his first goal and has recorded just one assist. It is unclear whether Bennett will even be qualified as an RFA this coming off-season: his team will have to tender him a one-year, $2.
