Zach Benson earning opportunity to be on the Buffalo Sabres first line with Tage Thompson

Zach Benson is getting a look on the first line with Tage Thompson and Josh Norris to start the preseason and he impressed versus the Columbus Blue Jackets. Benson had the highlight of the night with a great behind the back pass and his line dominated every time they were on the ice. Is Benson going to run with this chance to play up top in a much bigger role? How many minutes might he play in the regular season? Plus, Konsta Helenius is impressing this preseason, but is there any way the Sabres would put another teenager on the roster, even if he earns it? And the Sabres goal song vote is down to five songs!
