42 GP, 88 PTS. 26 game point streak. Insane

Best D-1 season since Crosby.

 

[Thomas Sowell]

I want habs to start taking next step and to not stagnate. But it's awfully tempting when you have a player of this caliber coming up to just hope for a few guys to take the year off

So what's the skinny on this guy?

He seems to ahead of Bedard statistically at the same age but not in goalscoring. Similar to Bedard, his statistical CHL comparables are Crosby and McDavid.

Unlike Bedard, his size seems to not be something to consider (not that Bedard's size is that big of a deal anyways).

Is he comparable stylistically to anyone?

 

[FourQuarters]

Bedard is one of the youngest prospect of 2023 draft class, McKenna will be one of the older prospect of 2026 draft class.

Six months definitely can be significant at that age.
