McDavid would most certainly help build support for whomever he goes to. Florida would be a great team to go to, and they are committed to becoming better. Same goes for Columbus, or Carolina.
Arizona would probably be the very best spot for him to land in. The NHL is committed to being there, the citizens of Glendale have sure paid a lot of taxes in keeping the Coyotes there (rightly or wrongly). The only western team that I would want him to go to.
No way to Edmonton - they have had enough 1st overalls, and hey - I hate them. I would rather have Edmonton over Toronto though - the amount of news that we get pounded down our throats out of Toronto is sickening. I don't want to give them more stories to write about.
Columbus would be ideal. Fanbase that has shown loads of support. A good organization from management down. Good veterans to help ease him into the rigors of the NHL. A team I don't hate either. Florida would be 2nd, Carolina 3rd.
