Taylor Hall before Jack Eichel: .85 P/G

My comparison had only one changing variable with all others held constant. Your comparison involves multiple changing variables. Hall may be have played on a line with Eichel this year, but there are still 3 other skaters on the ice that affect how each shift unfolds.

Jeff Skinner has been an absolute turd since signing his mammoth contract. His presence on that line likely hampered the other 2.
