?????????

year 1 52 pts in 82 games 52 pt pace
Year 2 17 PTS in 36 games 40 pt pace

If he keeps growing at the pace he is going he might be a 30 pt guy in 82 games this coming season.

Av management is obviously blaming his poor season on the poor team overall and were ecstatic that he didn't play anywhere near the level he was supposed to as that would have cost them Mackinnon.

I always think it is the responsibility of the best players to carry the team.

He is no where close to where Phanuef was when he got his big contract and that didn't turn out well.
