Playing career

Undrafted, Benn played in the British Columbia Hockey League with the Victoria Grizzlies. Originally signing a letter of intent with the University of Alaska Fairbanks in 2006, Benn deferred and later opted to forgo a collegiate career to remain in Victoria and make his professional debut with the Victoria Salmon Kings of the ECHL in the 2008–09 season. With his younger brother, Jamie, cementing his role as a prominent forward for the Dallas Stars, Benn secured his unconventional pathway up the ranks through the Stars' affiliates in the ECHL and American Hockey League.

Dallas Stars

After the 2010–11 season with the Texas Stars, Benn signed his first NHL contract in agreeing to a one-year, two-way deal with the Dallas Stars on July 2, 2011.[3] In the following 2011–12 season, on January 3, 2012, Benn made his NHL debut against the Detroit Red Wings. He recorded his first NHL point, also assisted by Jamie on a goal by Loui Eriksson.[4]

As an impending free agent following the 2015–16 season, Benn opted to remain with the Stars, signing a three-year, $3.3 million contract on June 24, 2016.[5]

Montreal Canadiens

In the midst of the 2016–17 season, Benn's tenure with the Stars came to an end after 7 years, as he was traded prior to the deadline to the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for Greg Pateryn and a fourth-round draft pick in 2017 on February 27, 2017.[6] On March 4, 2017, Benn scored his first goal with the Canadiens in a 4–1 victory against New York Rangers in Madison Square Garden.[7]

Vancouver Canucks

On July 1, 2019, Benn returned to his home province in signing as a free agent to a two-year, $4 million contract with the Vancouver Canucks.[8] On February 10, 2020, Benn scored his first goal with the Canucks in a 6–2 win over the Nashville Predators.

Winnipeg Jets

In his final year under contract with the Canucks in the 2020–21 season, Benn was dealt at the trade deadline to the Winnipeg Jets for a 2021 sixth-round pick on April 12, 2021.[9] In the closing stages of the regular season Benn registers 1 assist through 8 games. He featured in 3 playoff contests with the Jets, before ending his tenure with the club following a second-round series defeat to the Montreal Canadiens.

Minnesota Wild

As a free agent, Benn signed a one-year, $900,000 contract to join his fifth NHL club, the Minnesota Wild, on August 27, 2021.[10]

Toronto Maple Leafs

Again a free agent the following offseason, Benn continued his NHL journey by signing a one-year, $750,000 contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs on July 14, 2022, the second day of free agency.[11]
