So, McDavid 100+ points and Drai possibly 50 goals?

Well, funny you should mention that. I re-ran the numbers for percentages of goals that the Big 3 have been involved in. They're now at 130 out of 160 on the season - a staggering 81%.
In the 38 games since Hitchcock arrived, they're at 90 of 103...
It's insane. The team scored 17 goals without McDavid, Draisaitl or Nugent-Hopkins contributing under McLellan in 20 games, but under Hitch, they've got a grand total of 13 non-Big 3 goals in 38 games.
I agree with a lot of the pundits that this is a really weak team with no depth, but I think they might have gone backwards under Hitchcock, and if not for the brilliance of our three good players, this could be even worse - hard as that is to believe.
Other fun stats from today - Koskinen still hasn't won a game since he signed his contract. The Oilers have lost 11 of their last 12 games (two in OT, so there's at least a couple Bettman points). And Colby Cave is on the second powerplay unit.
For those wondering, Cave has now played nine games with the Oilers. He has tallied 0-0-0 in those games with 10 shots on goal - four of which came in one game. He belongs on an NHL powerplay unit about as much as Tobey Peterson did.
Oh, and both Matheson and Stauffer were suggesting that Keith Gretzky could/should be the new GM. You have to think that the Oilers are floating trial balloons to see if this is something they can sneak by on the fans...

I wonder how much of that is just Chiasson inevitably returning to his normal self. He's now gone 15 games without a goal, 2 in his last 20. Should've traded him 2 weeks ago.
Oilers now on pace for 230GF/276GA for a -46 goal differential. And a stunning 74 points. This team is worse than last year. And that's with McDavid, Drai and Nuge all having career years.
Oilers Goal Differential
17/18: 234 GF / 263 GA (-29)
18/19: 232 GF / 274 GA (-42)
19/20 (82 game pace): 257 GF / 254 GA (+3) in 64 games
2021 (82 game pace):269 GF / 235 GA (+34) after 38 games
