It's almost impossible for Draisaitl to be better in all 3 zones.

He is a plus 9 right now and tied for the league lead in points. If Eichel could be 80% of a Draisaitl, that is #winning.
I see Eichel as a star player that can help, but I do not see him as a guy who leads his team to the top. He does not drag everybody up with him. He plays well with other good players.
