The bottom line is when the Oilers needed Connor he was "sick" or slumping. But when Connor needed the scoring title after the team was out of it, the team did everything they could to get him that title. That points to a real ego problem either by Oilers management or Connor himself.

Sure you can blame Peters all you want, but any coach is going to depend on his leaders and the elite players on this team to get the job done.
