Its not as simple as saying "away from Connor" and leaving it at that. Maybe try comparing their actual line mates? Its funny that you need to separate Leon from his teams top players to try to make a case, and fail. Then continue on without making the same comparisons for little Johnny.
Who was Johnny playing with when he got swept out of the playoffs in 4 games with a -7 and 2 points again? Leon wasn't playing most of the time with Connor getting 16 points in 13 games, that's a fact.
How am I the one who failed? Lol I brought a bunch of stats showing drai wasn't the same player away from mcd. You proceeded to post excuses "it's not as simple as saying away from Connor", or "why don't you compare their linemates". The fact is drai didn't perform very well away from the best hockey player in the world. I find it funny though you bring up linemates, because Drai had most likely the best possible linemate for over half the season. But when given lesser linemates he couldn't perform nearly as well.
Yes he had an impressive playoffs but like I said, he scored over 32% of his shots during the second series. Not likely to happen again.
What's so funny about "...that you need to separate Leon from his teams top players to try to make a case...". Isn't Drai likely to play on his own line this season, away from Connor? If true then it makes sense to see what his stats are like without riding shotgun with mcd.
Drai is a good player and Edmonton is lucky to have him but you've seriously overrated him this off season.
