He is a playmaker, yes. But as I said, there’s the kind that can utilize their line mates regardless of skill and the kind that need a certain calibre of line mates to convert. You look at Patrick Kane and he was very much a player that could do it all by himself and elevate anyone. Outside of when they stick McDavid and Draisaitl together, a lot of the stars in the NHL play with younger players or pluggy kind of guys that you wouldn’t expect, and do really really well doing it.

Sure. And McKenna was already doing it by himself, and elevating the people around him, last year at the WJs, having just turned 17. And it's interesting that you use Kane in your example, because I think he is one of the best comparables for McKenna.
