Below are two excerpts from the Canadiens.com article by Shauna Denis
“I feel really good. Being here helps me realize the importance and the extent of everything that’s happening right now and I’m learning a lot, on and off the ice,” explained the young blue-liner, directly following a battery of physical tests. “It’s a really useful and complete experience. On the ice, we’re learning how to improve our skating and how to make sure we’re shooting properly. At the same time, we’re also learning training techniques as well as how to handle pressure and the media.”
Later in the article, the 17 year old Bennett was taken aback by the Habs' crazed fans:
“I still can’t believe how into it the fans are here,” added Bennett, referring to the hundreds of Canadiens fans who have flocked to the Bell Sports Complex to check out the stars-in-training this week. “There’s nowhere else where you’d get this many fans to come and see a bunch of young guys getting skating lessons. I couldn’t have asked to be drafted to a better team.”
