Investigating the cost of bringing back Jordie Benn

While the Montreal Canadiens have a handful of contracts that have to be sorted out this off-season, the most intriguing one might belong to pending unrestricted free agent Jordie Benn.

Other UFAs — Christian Folin, Jordan Weal and Nate Thompson — were re-signed rather quickly, yet Benn’s situation is a little bit more complicated than those of that trio. The top left defensive spot clearly belongs to Victor Mete right now, and the spot alongside Jeff Petry will likely be occupied by Brett Kulak once he signs his own new contract with Montreal.
