This is why I hoped so hard that Edmonton would take him and allow Bennett to fall to us. You look at all the recent Stanley Cup winners and they're all stacked with Canadian and American players who step up their games come playoff time. Not saying that Draisaitl couldn't do that, but I'll put my money on the kid that's grown up in a country where hockey is #1 and who dreamed about lifting the Stanley Cup all his life
