    Lol. Love all the MacKinnon haters here. The dude is having the best season in franchise history and you all are saying he isn't the best on the team. Then the McDavid fan boys..... you'll soon see Nate Dogg win the MVP.
    Love you, Ross. Let's go get a cup!

    Tampa fan through and through, and Kuch is in a league of his own certain ways, but I’d choose Nate over Kuch if had to choose one. Nate is unreal on his feet, his stick handling, edge work, explosive power, intensity, shooting, it’s all top notch insane. Kuch is a sorcerer with the puck. His play making ability is unmatched. He’s playing chess on the ice. Instead of all the who’s better than who, enjoy watching some of the best players ever play the game night after night. To watch the race each night of points. The highlights of all of them. These dudes all are the elite of the elite, and they each are the mvp of their team, one can win at the end, and whoever does, they deserve it.

    Can every Hart voter be required to listen to his comments about Nate...the same guy who played 2yrs with Kucherov.I understand hes here now,so he cant say Kucherov is best...but he also didnt have to be so definitve,& say Mckinnon is the best by a ways...hopefully this is Nates yr.I had no issue the year he finished 2nd to Drasaitil,but he shouldve won the year Taylor Hall beat him by 1 point. Jokic is a lock to win another MVP this yr-but Ball arena should be the home of both reigning MVPs next fall...& hopefully we get simultaneous June parades-after having 1 each of the last 2 Junes.

    • @petrpumpkineater
      @petrpumpkineater หลายเดือนก่อน

      McJesus doesn't have the hockey sense to replicate those bull rushes over & over & over, even when they know its coming. Nate takes private power skating lessons. He has a unique way of puck handling while rocketing thru a defense. As a result, MacK has by far the most speed bursts & shots than anyone. All three goals in his latest hat trick were prime exanple of how McDavid is just not on that same level. Nate has the physical recovery that nobody else, as mentioned by Bednar. Connor has the best physical attributes but doesn't use them to the level of 29.

    Ross is too nice of a guy to say it and you’d never say your current situation is worse than it was, but sounds kind of like Ross is sick of Mackinnons personality compared to how things were in Tampa…the way he talks about Mackinnons intensity/anger doesn’t exactly sound like a ringing endorsement…”stammer and heddy led by example and didn’t have to say much” versus “MacKinnons not angry just wants to win so bad” lol

      You can’t say hands down, even myself as an Avs fan I can’t say hands down Mack is better than kuch. Like you can’t say that. Unless you don’t watch hockey or are an irrational person but you can’t say that. This race right now, Mack, kuch, McDavid, Matthew’s. U can’t say hands down. It LITERALLY comes down to personal opinion. If u wanna say kuch is better that’s fine, I’ll argue but I also won’t disagree, but you cannot say, as a rational human being and hockey fan that it’s “hands down”
