McDavid now has 376 points in 209 games since the 2022 playoffs

[sensfan4lifee]

Well there it is, open and shut case

I mean as high as he can get is 4, He's not going to pass Gretzky, Lemieux or Orr

 

[PaulD]

Most talented player since Lemieux.

he's pretty crazy, he's like having 2 superstars on your team

as is MacKinnon

I mean as high as he can get is 4, He's not going to pass Gretzky, Lemieux or Orr

May not pass Sid either. Hasn't yet.

 

[Voight]

By the time he retires, there's a chance it could go like this:

1) Gretzky
2) Orr
3) McDavid
4) Howe
5) Lemieux

Keep in mind, this if McDavid has some level of consistency close to if not better than Howe. So far hes been top 3 in points eight of nine seasons so good start.

 

[Craft Beer Lover]

Absolutely no question whatsoever.

He passed Crosby the moment he put on an NHL jersey for the first time when the Oilers drafted him back in 2015.

My top 5 is different than yours

1 - Gretzky
2 - Lemieux
3 - Orr
4 - Howe
5 - Hasek
6 - Jagr
7 - Crosby
8 - Ovechkin
9 - Beliveau
10 - Richard

That's my top ten of all time I'm not sure where I would put McDavid yet.

Obviously a Crosby fan, but objectively, he can’t hold McDavid’s jock.

3 Stanley cups says differently

And if Crosby were in his prime atm he'd be putting up 130+ points every season to

It’s even more impressive because he won them himself

I wouldn’t go this far, but McDavid is well on his way to passing Crosby. Look at points he’s there. Look at dominance vs league he’s there. It’s only playoff success he’s missing.

mcdavid wishes he had the luxury to win a cup with a 19 point performance getting (arguably) outplayed by kessel. Mcdavid has this doubled (still adding) and looks to be in a losing effort. “But h3 has cups!!!” Just isn’t convincing

 

[Sniper99]

Yeah, we get it, he scores lots of points. Maybe it's time he focusses on winning Cups, instead, like all the great ones do.

You really think hes not focused on winning cups? Newsflash! HE IS!

 

[Roksta]

He can't hold McDavid's jock someone said of Crosby lmao

People on this board are willingly the hard R word (I hope its willingly)

 

[bland]

Hey look, another McDavid thread!

 

[Dhockey16]

Hey look, another McDavid thread!

The more the merrier. He's the best player many HF posters have ever seen play and he's currently in the cup final. I'm enjoying every minute of it

 

[Sasha Orlov]

He’s currently in the Stanley Cup finals leading the playoffs in scoring and has a gap of 17pts over closest non-teammate

What is he supposed to be doing in your opinion?

 

[PaulD]

Absolutely no question whatsoever.

yea. sure he did

It's actually quite pathetic.

McDavid is a sensational talent, but he is playing at the easiest time to be an offensive player in the history of the game. He has never had to persevere thru the physicality or structural limitations of previous generations - including Crosby.

That's a foolish take. Are you forgetting the 1980s entirely?

 

[Connor McConnor]

Hes not #2

Your opinion matters. Keep telling yourself that.

 

[_habsfan9]

Where is that moron who called him overrated? lol

 

[canuckslover10]

In terms of actual talent he is the best player of all time.

 

[Craft Beer Lover]

Must’ve been a Leaf or Penguin fan.

I mean how about you start living in reality because He is not better than Lemieux or Orr, my god Oilers fans are literally the most insufferable fans on this board.

And yes my opinion matters so if you don't agree with it, just don't say anything its not that hard to do

Its not like you've added anything of value or merit to any discussion anyways

Not an oilers fan, and teams win cups

 

[Frank Drebin]

yea. sure he did

Probably around 2020 -21 . It'll all be very clear 10, 15 years down the road

Crosby = Toews < Bryan trottier
