It’s brutal.
You’ll have times where those players will single-handedly win the game but, even when that happens, the rest of the team feels completely separate from it - like you’re just spectators. Hard to ever feel like a team when the only way you win is to wait for those guys to do something.

Yep. He has never learned to be a good leader. The Oilers should have made developing that character their no. 1 priority, but it's not in the culture of the organization. They've wasted years with his talent as a result. Character isn't what they focus on, as further evidenced by trading for Kane. They just care about stats.
