He didn't though. According to Dobberhockey Draisatil played about 57-60% of his icetime with McDavid.
He also played center on Mcdavid's line from time to time as well. He took more faceoffs than McDavid and it wasn't unusual to see Draisaitl as the man down low in the D-zone.
So he actually played center around half the time he was on the ice last season.
