Looking Forward: Benn's comeback season was impressive, as it showed just how effective he can still be. He is the longest-running captain in franchise history, and he was a huge part of the transition to the DeBoer way of hockey. He played quicker and smarter for much of the season, and set a great example for the entire team. Benn went from 88 penalty minutes in 2021-22 to 34 last season. He also went from minus-13 to plus-23. His calm hand helped Johnston get better game-to-game as a 19-year-old, and it's clear the two will be linemates again. Just like Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz, the duo will have to deal with the pressure to follow up, but Benn should have the experience to deal with the expectations. While Benn had a run where it looked like the end might be coming sooner than later, he is just 34 and has a great role model in Joe Pavelski.
