It's been really hard to get a proper view on him when the pace of these games has been so substandard. He thrives at high speed when the puck is moved up the ice fast and the tempo simply hasn't been up there.
I thought he played great again but he's not exploiting his excellent speed nearly well enough. I don't know if he's still shaking off rust or is it about the slow pace but not using his strongest asset is very uncharacteristic of him.
He also needs to start shooting way more and stop being so unselfish on the ice. His playmaking skills and vision are exceptional though. He sees the ice so well. Also love how he is able to process the game so quickly.
All in all he has looked impressive thus far and I think he has been easily the most dangerous player on the ice for the past two games. But he also needs to find another gear once the preseason starts and I know he has it in him. Once the pace speeds up a notch I think he will look even better.
