Agree with this completely.
One thing I noticed also lately when he gets the chance to play with "better" linemates is that he does not try and do everything himself.
He seemed very relaxed with the puck against the Oilers. Was not forcing anything or trying to over do it.
When he plays simple he is a very effective bottom sixer, he just needs to continue as such.
Crash and bang, shoot when you can and always look for the open man.
