Beniers scored a goal Thursday in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Lightning.
His goal tied the game 3-3 and forced the overtime. Beniers snapped a four-game point drought with the goal. He now has two goals, two assists and 10 shots over eight games this season. Beniers is coming off a 20-goal, 50-point season in 2025-26, and that could be the kind of player Beniers is. Yes, he's just 23 years old, but the great step forward hasn't happened, and he debuted in 2021-22.
