  Draisaitl has been awarded the Art Ross Trophy for leading the league in scoring with 110 points in 71 games this year. Draisaitl has become a bonafide superstar over the past two seasons. The 24-year-old German burst onto the scene with 50 goals and 105 points in 82 games last year only to follow it up with an arguably even more impressive 43 goals and 67 assists in 71 games this campaign. He and teammate Connor McDavid will both be top-3 picks in the majority of fantasy formats next season.

  Draisaitl currently leads the NHL in scoring with 110 points (43 goals, 67 points) in 71 games. The second-place player in the scoring race is actually Draisaitl's teammate, Connor McDavid, who's picked up 97 points in 64 points this campaign. That 13-point gap shows just how unbelievable the 24-year-old German has been in 2019-20. If the NHL ultimately resumes play and ends up handing out its yearly awards, Draisaitl will be a frontrunner for the Hart Memorial Trophy as the league's MVP.
