McDavid isn’t even top 20 in points… He’s obviously washed up. /s

I hate the Devils but he is up there for sure.

Hughes > McDavid

His brother in Vancouver is better. East coast bias

He has been the best in the world for 2 weeks of hockey you can’t deny it lol. He also showed flashes last year, I think he outscored mcdavid for 2 months towards the end of the year. Currently mcdavid is still number 1 obviously but I could see jack challenging for a couple of harts in the coming years, he’s young and yet to hit his prime

Matthews, Drai, Ullmark, Makar, Fox, Shesterkin, Heiskanen, hell even Thompson you could make a compelling argument for

Til he plays Jordan staal lol. Devils are the new sharks they used to say this stuff about cheechoo

Penguins fan here, going to have to get used to the hilarity of it, anyone and everyone will be the new IT guy for their moment of fame. Sid had Ovi, Giroux, Toews, even sometimes a player like Doughry would get thrown in as the “new best player in the world” when clearly it was still Sid.
That said, it will be interesting to see McDavid now that he’s legit on the cusp and heading to the other side of the typical prime of a player and other stars like Hughes are coming into their own, can he continue his dominance?

On pace for 232 points… hand him the crown

You can say this if you’re only counting this season lol. Otherwise no

I could see him taking the mantle of best US player from Patty Kane. Not sure he’s better than McDavid rn

I mean, what is “right now”?
Tonight? This week? This month? Sure. Anything else, a bit of a stretch.

lmao so much better then Jack Hughes right now 😂😂😂 McDavid at his worst still better then what Hughes can accomplish in his whole career!!!!!

Anyone who says McDavid is not the best player in the world is an idiot. I cannot understand this take.

He’s moving into top 5 right now. But it’s been 6 games lol let’s see how the season plays out. He doesn’t have a 100 point season yet

I always think it’s interesting when they say “best in the world” instead of “best in the league”. As if some dude in the KHL is just lighting it up somewhere and nobody is paying attention.

He’s playing against him tonight.
So yeah, makes sense. And I can’t say the compliments are undeserved.

Impossible. ESPN told me that was Bedard.

the refs sure like him but he’s a little overrated

I think he’s talking at this point in time. Hughes peak is higher than McDavids dip. I think you are reading too much into this.

Checks out.

I think Don is factoring in the fact that McDavid isn’t playing right now so technically Hughes is the best. He’s not saying Hughes is better than McDavid. Y’all reading too much into it.

Pretty sure it was Gretzky that said if anyone can catch McDavid, it’s Jack Hughes. I believe him. Jack’s a stud.

It’s NHL propaganda to try to show off more stars
This guy might actually be a winner tho
