Calgary Flames fans will get their first official look at Sam Bennett on Thursday as the top prospect is expected to make his NHL preseason debut against the Vancouver Canucks. 

Bennett missed the start of training camp and was sidelined from preseason action with a groin injury he suffered in the Young Stars Classic tournament. 

The former Kingston Frontenac scored 36 goals and 91 points in 57 OHL games last season.
