Williams is actually pulling Kopitar up to his level. When apart from Williams, Kopitar has worse numbers. They are a perfect combo in that Williams is 1 of the very very best, if not the best, at getting the puck in the o-zone and keeping it there, he just needs help at getting it into the net, which is what Kopitar provides
when is kopitar ever apart from williams? Maybe just after a pk ends or when kopitar gets double shifted?

J-Dub is the best puck possession Winger in the NHL right now on the RW, according to advanced stats.

Justin Williams is that good.

The J-Dub trade for Lombardi is a complete heist.

not just winger, he is the best player period, and has been since possession stats have been recorded

when is kopitar ever apart from williams? Maybe just after a pk ends or when kopitar gets double shifted?

ye thinking about it, the reason that Williams is higher is probably because the only real time they are apart is when Kopitar takes important defensive draws with Richards and Carter on his line

Kopitar is golden and we are so lucky to have him. I for one, want him retire a King.
