At the WJC it looked like Eichel was motivated more and was trying to prove himself on a large stage. I don't know which one I'd want out of the two though because it looks like McDavid has more talent but Eichel has almost as much talent but makes up for it with more drive and determination.

Both of them look amazing and any team would be better with them.

Is it fair to say that McDavid vs. Eichel is similar to Reinhart vs. Bennett in terms of skill vs. drive?
