Probably because McDavid is not a good line mate, he is the best line mate you can have in the game, and it's not really even close, right?
Definitely not denying that but the examples I mentioned often don't just play with one good teammate they have a complete dominant line including excellent 1Ds in the back end to get them the puck as well. Even having the best player in the world on your wing won't make you as dominant as Drai has been for the better part of 1.5 years now. I guess us Oiler fans just have to be patient. Eventually people will come to realize what those who watch every game see. That Drai is a top 10 player in the game right now, regardless of McJesus being his linemate.
