This matches the eye test. Drai has been on the move all the time this season so far.

Not bad for such a lazy player
This is what a true top 5 forward in the league looks like, not Auston Matthews. His 2-way game has grown far more consistent over the past 3 years. He's an elite 2-way beast.This Draisaitl kid can play..
Man, was there ever a more unsung hero superstar in the NHL?
Every town we go its like Connor gets all the press and Draisaitl wows in the games. Nobody in attendance should wonder who Leon is. But he's like that literally every rink as he's made a career of stealing Rangers bacon.
Leon would be the best forward on literally any other team. No other player but Connor would be throwing any shade on him. What a smart player.
How many was McDavid on the ice for though.11 points in 5 games. What's most impressive about it is that all of them are primary points.

I don't know the actual numbers but it seemed like he won every face off he took.
Absolutely amazing.
Playing like the he’s the best player in the world right now.
What a beast.
Draisaitl has equal goal scoring ability but far superior playmaking compared to Matthews who’s so over rated.This is what a true top 5 forward in the league looks like, not Auston Matthews. His 2-way game has grown far more consistent over the past 3 years. He's an elite 2-way beast.
I'll avatar bet anyone that Draisaitl hits 100P this year if he doesn't get injured. Not that my avatar could get much uglier, but still.He has a Kawhi like swag to his game right now what a boss
Think he could go 40-60-100 at this rate easily
Drai 9EV pts
McD 5EV pts
Food for thought?
Drai is creating more plays in standard 5 on 5 matchup and getting more points. That's quite something.
McD and Drai currently 1,2 in NHL production.

I don't think he's reached prime Kopitar defensively yet, but he's easily surpassed him offensively.So much for the myth of Drai being a slow starter. His pace of play and overall dominance in all zones has been incredibly impressive this year. I wonder how much the Germany/Europe trip last year impacted his start?
really awesome to see how he put up 50 goals last year and was easily a top 10 player in the league on his own merits and he has started this season hungry and wanting more. Hard to think of a player who compares to him? Maybe prime Jamie Benn or Malkin as there aren’t many players who have the size, speed and skill that Drai possesses. He’s eclipsed Kopitar by a decent margin IMO.
