If you dig in though it's not the case at all.
In the Ducks series he was 43% CF, 44% SCF and 46% HDF ... badly out played.
And shot 27.3% in the playoffs as a whole.
Outplayed, and unsustainable = big ticket

Not to mention, going off memory, the Ducks were putting a lot of their effort into shutting down McLotto. If Draisaitl was the "#1 centre" he would have been eaten alive in that series.
