Nobody mentioned best player "starting a new franchise".
The question was asked, "are we arguing that McDavid is not the best player in the league".
Sydney Crosby, right now, is the best player in the NHL, hands down.
And yes winning the SC and Conn Smythe two years in a row is indeed, evidence.
Because winning the SC and being the best player on a SC team is kind of what ever player strives for.
McDavid is not that player right now and IMO was pretty damn average in rhe SC playoffs.
