It will be interesting to see how McDavid develops his shot from the outside. Eichel already is an elite sniper (check out his beauty of an OT winner vs Slovakia).
I get the feeling this will be a Crosby type player vs Jagr type player. One dominates a bit more with quickness and vision, the other with physical tools and a powerful shot.
This will be a big weakness hell need to address. Mcdavid is very good at getting around defenders, but his shot isnt used as a strength. Not sure if its because hes so good he can walk around them and doesnt need to shoot from outside, or the shot is average
Either way, in the NHL hell be required to use the shot more. Or defenders will back off and give him space on zone entries knowing he wont use the shot. Once he gets a good shot, itll increase his goals, but also require D to play him tighter and allow him to deke around them
