Why won't this code work / save?

This is supposed to be a DataStore script I did from a tutorial but it doesn't seem to work. Any idea what's wrong?

Here's part one of the script:

01local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("LolWhyDa")
02 
03 
04game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
05 
06    local stats = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
07    stats.Name = "leaderstats"
08 
09    local points = Instance.new("IntValue", stats)
10    points.Name = "Points"
11 
12    local coins = Instance.new("IntValue", stats)
13    coins.Name = "Coins"
14 
15    local key = "user-"..player.userId
16 
17    local savedValues = DataStore:GetAsync(key)
18 
19    if savedValues then
20        --Save Format: {points, coins}
21        points.Value = savedValues.Value[1]
22        coins.Value = savedValues.Value[2]
23    else
24        local valuesToSave = {points.Value, coins.Value}
25        DataStore:SetAsync(key, valuesToSave)
26 
27    end
28end)

Part 2, located in a seperate script

01local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("LolWhyDa")
02 
03 
04game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
05 
06    local key = "user-"..player.userId
07    --Save key: {points, coins}
08    local valuesToSave = {player.leaderstats.Points.Value, player.leaderstats.Coins.Value}
09    DataStore:SetAsync(key, valuesToSave)
10 
11end)
