The term 'controller disconnect' applies more to him than I think any other player I have ever seen.
He has some tremendous tools, there is no question about that, and there is a reason he was drafted 4OA. And he shows flashes of those tools, with some very good plays.
But much of the time, he is simply moving around the ice, unsure where to be or what to do. And I believe this is what coaches want no part of.
And weren't there implications that McDavid had asked to have him removed from his line?
