I've been thinking about that, because the whole Oiler fan refrain is that McDavid makes everyone around him better.



But is that true, or does he make one player better (Draisiatl).


It'd be interesting to see other Oiler players time on ice with McDavid and how it effected their scoring. It certainly didn't help Reider, or Spooner, or Poolpary or Lucic to be on McDavid's wing.


Look, I think that McDavid is an exceptional scoring talent. But I don't know that he's an elite playmaker, and I don't know if its true that he elevates other players game.
