Flames’ Bennett returns from injury, excited to make Bell Centre debut

Sam Bennett is returning from an upper-body injury in time to play his first game in one of hockey's most storied cities.

The Calgary Flames forward, who's been sidelined since March 9, missing four games, will play Sunday in Montreal, much to his delight.

"I'm excited," Bennett said after the morning skate. "It's my first time at the Bell Centre."

The 19-year-old, who spent his junior hockey a few hours drive from Montreal, has 15 goals and 17 assists this season.
