Looks more like NJ gave up on a talented scorer in a statistically unlucky year.
3.5% higher shooting percentage from 2023 to 2021 is a jump for sure, but it's not an insane heater like where we've seen guys shoot at 28%.
He's a talented goal scorer.

The concern is his expected goals at 5v5:
14 in 2021, 13.3 in 2022, 8 this year.
11.9% in 2021, 17.6% this year.
He is a good player. Strong middle 6er. I have never denied that. I am saying he isn't any better now. There seems to be this misconception that he's improved.
