If he’s relied upon to be an offensive producer and that’s what he does, then he is playing well.
If he’s not ‘earning’ his points how are other players on the team earning their production?
Look at some of the guys that play with McDavid? Do they produce like Rantanen? And MacKinnon isn’t even on McDavid’s level.
MacKinnon is great, obviously, but the thought that Rantanen didn’t earn his points in the playoffs is so false.
For instance, this is an outstanding play by MacK, but most players can’t one-time a puck out of mid-air and go bar-down. That’s not exactly normal lol.
Why is it so hard to give Rantanen any credit?
