With "normalized" goaltending, refereeing, etc, he probably ends up with no points last night.

I'm sorry, but McDavid was good out there. He looked scary good many times that didn't result in goals also. Comments like, well if you took away his points, he'd have gotten no points really don't make sense. Mistakes, luck occur on every single NHL goal, so you can't really say things like, if you take those away, what would he have, cause you could also argue that he should have gotten some points that he didn't.
He played very well last night, rose to the occasion, us trying to spin it any other way simply isn't right.
