duc_evo Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I hear all this talk about Reinhart and Ekblad and they will go at #1 and #2, but why aren't we high on Bennett. He can't even do a chin-up and he is top three in 2014 Draft. Am I wrong in thinking that this kid has the highest potential of being a beast 5 years from now. All this kid is at his current form is Raw Talent. When his body matches his talent, I think he will be the steal on the 2014 Draft. I'd rather give up alitle to get Bennett @ #3 than a lot to get Reinhart @ #1. AKA Reinhart is overrated in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuckler87 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 overrated for a guy who couldn't do a pull up imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Yup. He is. Happy with either. We go at #3 and FLA and BUF pick 1 and 2, we'll still end up with Reinhart though. I think Bennett is BUF's guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'll agree. I think once he his his stride in his mid twenties he's gonna shine. It also shows how many keyboard or console hockey players we have on the forum that key in to only what he does in regards to pull ups or chin ups....

Xbox Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 No he's not he's just not an option for us at all. He wont be there with the 6th and certainly doesnt warrant a #1 pick over Reinhart or Ekblad. He should be on our radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterHorvatBure Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Well there's a number of different threads talking about all of the draft eligibles on CDC, but there's a lot of attention on Sam Reinhart because that is the guy that Benning and Linden want. They're pretty clear on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryten Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I would take Sam Bennett over Sam Reinhart, but I would never blame the Canucks brass for doing the opposite. They not only liked Reinhart's game but he apparently interviewed well and might have the character they are looking for. Only about a thirty-percent chance of us scoring the first overall pick anyways (if Tallon was referring to us as the concrete offer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absent Canuck Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I disagree. At this point none of us know if he will be a bust or star. In my opinion he will be neither. He has skill and vision but lets face it, his 91 points in 57 games is very good, but its not earth shattering. But thats not my problem with him. Its his 118 penalty minutes. None of them were for fighting. He gets frustrated quickly and takes bad penalties. He is chippy. I am not ready to call him Marchand or Carcillo yet, but if he doesnt adjust his attitude we might very well be calling him that one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollumpus Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 If the Canucks had the option of taking Bennett (assuming Reinhart and Ekblad were already gone) then I'd be quite happy with him. I would hope he will get a bit bigger, but I do like the talent and compete level in this kid. regards, G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peaches5 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Ekblad and Bennett are 1 and 2 in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pretty muched laughed at everyone panicking over the stupid pull up thing. He's gonna be a good player. Maybe great. But, I would not take him over Reinhart. Reinhart has franchise potential written all over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are more optimistic about Reinhart than I am, but if we end up scoring the first overall and draft him, I will hope you are right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobiedoodoo Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I really sam bennett, but when i watch the highlights of him, the kids is going to get a lot of injuries in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
