BUFFALO, NY - Zack Kassian isn't foreign to playing with premier talent.
The Oilers energizer amassed 32 goals and 59 points in 171 career games with the Vancouver Canucks over parts of four seasons, at times sharing the ice with Daniel and Henrik Sedin, and is now getting an opportunity to play alongside two elite stars in Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.
The winger specified the differences in style of play between the two sets of skaters on Sunday at KeyBank Center.
"Connor obviously brings that world-class speed and the Sedins, they were kind of two Draisaitls on the same line the way they passed the puck," Kassian, who has two goals in his last two games said.
"Connor and Leon are definitely unique in what they can do and how they can beat you because it's so many different ways but it's no doubt, those are top-end players."
