can only dream about what it might be like if Kaprizov had a real Center. :'(

Probably be about the same as Draisaitl is by himself.

Great player, but since he would be the third best player on the Oilers, no one would rank him in the top 10, probably good for about 20th in the league for forwards.

Solid player though.
Tampa is the only team stacked enough where Matthews would be 3rd best.

i will never respect Draisaitl as a true top 5 talent as long as he is attached to Mcdavids hip. thats the truth. he isnt as good as you think. just riding shotgun next to a generational talent.

but im sure you are happy with those empty points, and all those individual awards. so i wont try to take those away from you. have fun watching him tap in Mcdavid passes.

Colorado has looked dominate when there were stretches of 5 on 5 play, but their special team is killing them right now.

any team that lets the Wild score 2 pp's has some issues

I'm sure Leon Draisaitl is crying into his Hart Trophy at reading this.

They're only "empty points and trophies" to you because no player on your team can win one.

Draisaitl riding shotgun to McDavid is sure better than the alternative- i.e. McDavid being a one man show.

Remember when Pavel Bure's 59 goals represented 30 percent of FLA's 190 goals in 2000-01? That's what happens when you're a generational talent and you have NOBODY to ride shotgun.

It's called depth. I don't think Draisaitl cares as much about as standing among elite players as fans do. He just wants to help get EDM over the hump by any means necessary.
