benn was a point per game player last year when he lined up with eriksson.
the only reason he fell from this pace was that he was asked to play with ott and burrish for a large stretch of games because ribeiro was too incompetent to play with anything but top wingers in a protected role without drastically hurting the team. benn also had limited powerplay time. this season benn will have two top six wingers and a regular shift on the top powerplay unit. i think he is as likely as anyone on your list to reach point per game status.
