Drew Doughty, Quinn Hughes, Miro Heiskanen or Alexander Barkov: Who's most to blame?

[geebster]

I hate all those answers. Gretzky had playoff runs better than McDavids. Eras have to factor in too. No singular person he faced actually got torched 1 on 1 enough to account for his overall breaking of the record. Hughes didn't do great but McDavid had 1 assist in a 3 game span that series and didn't even put up a point in game 7.

Only answer that's legit is McDavid is the best player of the era and had a great playoff run. It's no one else's fault, he's just that good. Comparisons to Gretzky border on total meaninglessness since they played in such different leagues on such different teams. I know people want to discuss it but it really isn't objective enough to be compelling.

These poll options are so friggin dumb. So if you think no one is to blame about an all time great putting up all time great numbers you have to automatically think he's better than Gretzky?

That's the logical conclusion.

wow, a Dostoevsky quote!

You're based af my brother, you're my new favorite



I blame Kevin Lowe and Craig MacTavish, arguably, the best GM admin Edmonton has ever had when you think about it

That's the logical conclusion.

Maybe to you.

Playoffs.

ahh yeah that was the Gretzky record right? pretty incredible. been what like 35 years or something more?

Plus that one goal that McDavid scored, it totally looked like Heiskanen was playing defense against his wife's boyfriend.

This is some of your best work and I am definitely stealing in the future, bravo.
