Sam Bennett, a center for the Florida Panthers, recently broke a 20-game goal drought by scoring in the Panthers' 3-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings. Bennett faced difficulties despite consistent efforts reflected in his high shot totals and scoring chances during that period. His performance improved significantly on a recent road trip, leading to his first-period goal in the Kings match, marking his third goal in five games. Bennett emphasized the importance of resilience and maintaining consistency, underscoring that scoring can be challenging in the NHL.
"It's just just a matter of bearing down. You're gonna have your ups and downs throughout the year, and it's just a matter of staying positive and eventually things are gonna turn."
"That's obviously tough when you go through long, long droughts... It’s not an easy league to score, and sometimes you go through those. It's just about staying consistent, staying with your game."
"Over his 20-game scoreless streak, Bennett was among the team leaders in shots on goal (54), scoring chances (59) and high-danger chances (28)."
"Bennett's first-period goal in the Panthers' 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings... was his third in the past five games."
