It follows that the players who have the puck the most and play the most will give it away the most.
Nathan MacKinnon leads the Colorado Avalanche in giveaways. Connor McDavid leads the Oilers in giveaways by a mile. David Pastrnak leads the Bruins in giveaways by a mile. Sebastian Aho leads the Hurricanes. Jack Eichel leads the Sabres by a mile. I could go on.
In short, giveaways taken in isolation do not matter. Taylor Hall is a giveaway machine, but that just means he has possession of the puck a lot. He would be an instant difference maker on the Flames.
