In total, he has 58 primary points and 41 secondary assists.

In contrast, his linemates have 85 (Marner) and 82 (Dvorak) primary points.

One has to be careful with that. There is a reason they dole out 2 assists on goals.

If a guy digs the puck out of the corner and sends it to a 2nd guy standing alone on the half boards, and he then passes it to the goal scorer, was the primary assist a better or more important play?
