I would strongly disagree but we are arguing semantics now as his elite aspects greatly propel him to a high average overall. Here are all of the top 6 winger GAR results (16/17-17/18):

Think of GAR like a grade that has a number of different classes. Laine scored very well in ES GAR both of those years. ES GAR takes all aspects of ES play into it. Sure it is largely driven by his goals but his goals give him a similar or higher grade in that area then a more complete player Wheeler.
So we will have to disagree on this.
Sure he may be a F defensively and C at driving play but he is an A plus at scoring goals and an B plus and putting up points which pulls his average up to a very high grade.
I get that you like Maurice place more weight on certain aspects such as defense but most models put less weight on those quantities.
