Fantasy Impact:
Bennett cashed in on a career season for the Panthers during the 2024-25 campaign, tallying 51 points (25 goals, 26 assists) in 76 regular season games while also playing a pivotal role in Florida winning a second consecutive Stanley Cup, posting 22 points during the postseason on his way to claiming the Conn Smythe trophy. The gritty center should once again be targeted as a mid-round option while slotting into the middle of the second forward line for a Florida group looking to claim a third straight Stanley Cup championship under head coach Paul Maurice this upcoming season.
