Sam Bennett isn't a slam dunk free agent target for the Buffalo Sabres

Sam Bennett presently leads the NHL playoffs in goals and is the favorite to win the Conn Smythe. He's also going to be free agent in less than a month. Why shouldn't the Buffalo Sabres go all-in for a player like that? A look at Bennett's overall game and what it will cost to get him, presents a dangerous free agent to show desperation for. Is Bennett as good defensively as his reputation says? Will it cost $10M to get him to even consider Buffalo? And why the Maple Leafs will likely be the team anyone has to outbid to get Bennett.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
