It's telling too, one of the knocks on him in the USHL was that he didn't use his team mates a lot.
But if you look at the stats of his teammates, it might become more apparent why that was the case... Also why I think he's got better offensive talent than Coronato. Coronato had a lot of help, Sillinger was basically alone.
