THe phrase player you win with is such a poor description of a trait.
If you said I don't think he can be the number 1 player on a championship team in the NHL you might find some agreement
JG as a number 3 option on a cup team and that team is winning multiple
Cups.
Really I think his ideal scenario is carrying is scoring line with a 1b line that both scores and shuts the other team down. Last year Backlunds line was that line this year not so much.
