"that chick from Ohio"
Because in Arizona, he didn't have a Patrick Kane to work with. And when he's not putting up numbers, he's a liability.And why do his numbers in Arizona as a 20 and 21 year old matter more than his time in Chicago?
...but it's still alongside Patrick Kane. And he's still a liability when not putting up those numbers.And why can't you accept that his production went down when he was playing injured as a valid excuse for some of his non-performance this year. Even if you take his entire 58 game sample, 18 games when he was playing hurt, he still put up 54 points per 82. That's still 2C production.
No matter how it's spun, one cannot get away from the fact that his only productive seasons at the NHL level have come when he has been alongside a legit superstar. That is not something most teams can afford to do.
