Here's the problem with so many players that come to Edmonton. McDavid and Draisaitl are the gods that run the show on the ice, and all the offense goes through them by design. Guys fall into the background due to the coaching strategy of "just give it to Connor and Leon" and they lose their ability and freedom to just try to make things happen themselves. Foegele fell into that trap, like so many others.
The Kings roll four lines and the expectation is that each player tries to make the most of his time on the ice and to work as a team to generate offense and to cover each other on D. You can see it in the way that these two teams play. Everyone on the Oilers roster is just waiting for McDavid or Drai to do something, and the Kings are just lapping them by having all the players rolling. This is why Warren is thriving in this system. He has the free rein to go and try to make things happen himself, and is playing with others that are around his caliber in talent. They feed off of each other, not have their creativity and energy sucked by having these all-consuming talents that the Oilers play in the shadow of.
It took a while for LA to finally build an Oiler-killing squad, however they did it... with help from Jackson and Bowman... but primarily Jackson, and also thanks to Knoblauch for not rocking the boat to make the Oilers play a better team game.
We just need to accept that the franchise has been run by donkeys for too long and that the only GM that had a clue as to how to win (for all his faults, Holland took this team to G7 of the Finals) has ridden off into the sunset. We're back to having donkeys run the show.
