Edmonton Oilers: Should Leon Draisaitl Carry His Own Line

Though McDavid can produce points with pretty much any player, Draisaitl was a huge asset. The two of them bounced off each other, and when it came to finding McDavid the perfect right winger, the Oilers solved the solution with Draisaitl. The German forward scored 29 goals and 77 points and was a huge part of the first line. McDavid hit the 30-goal mark and finished with 100 points.

Not to mention, both players went on impressive point streaks to end the season. Certainly, their chemistry and scoring ability helped them claim the title as the NHL’s deadliest duo.
