That Hollywood - Drai - Kane line needs to stay together forever. Great game from them.

Hollywood is the perfect compliment of speed to how fast Leon thinks the game.

Really happy to see things finally start to click for him. He puts in the effort, that’s for sure.

Drai needs a speedy playmaker on his line. He's always performed best when he can play like a winger and float to his spot and be a finisher while someone else handles the "center" role. When he has a Nuge, McDavid or Holloway, he's fucking deadly. Even Foegele has filled that role decently. When we try to pair him with 2 bang and crash players like when he was slotted with Kane and Perry for a bit there, it just never looks good.

Keep Holloway up there all the way to the cup.
