I get what you're saying for those leagues, but for points only, I think he'll be just fine. He's a play-maker first and foremost, and has never been a shoot first player so I don't think its fair to expect that of him. Also, RYJO was on track to be a ppg player and had over 600 shots combined in 3 seasons with CBJ and then got traded to a defense first lineup which has always had scoring very spread out. RYJO has also had multiple 60+ point seasons while going PPG in two straight playoff years back in 2016/17 and 2017/18. I get that he fell off the last few years (back to 33 points this season in 39 games though..) but if Dach becomes RYJO 2.0 or better... then I think Chicago takes that and runs.
But yeah, anyways, my point is that if you expected high shot totals from Dach, that's just not him. If there is any critique I'd make for Dach right now its that I think he gets caught being a bit lackadaisical at times.
