Drai's stats without McDavid are a little damning, but that's not the end all be all.
If we're just taking who is better right now 1v1 without looking at anything else it probably is Drai by a hair. But when factoring in contracts, linemates, defensive play, etc. then I just don't see how you can vote against Larkin.
I really hope Zadina develops as planned because I really want to see what Larkin can do with true high-end offensive talent. He's been playing with Helm, Abdelkader and Nyquist all season and is still nearly PPG with high defensive acumen.
