I totally agree. McDavid is a machine but he is basically an island out there. He can't seem to work with any other players. Leon is the only guy he matches up with on the ice. It seems very tough to build a line or a team around McDavid in his current state. It has been mentioned by a lot of people already but his leadership is a big issue which is holding back the Oilers success.
It would be a very difficult decision but a blockbuster trade for McDavid might be the best move for Edmonton.
