Even just based upon this season alone, if given the theoretical chance to choose only one of them, I doubt there is a single coach or GM who would truthfully pick Draisaitl over MacKinnon to play on their team. Let alone picking Draisaitl over McDavid if forced to in a similar hypothetical. The points are largely a byproduct of McDavid drawing the opposing top defenders and PP time. Draisaitl was not the "most valuable to his team" this season.
I bet even those clowns in Edmonton would admit this if they are being honest (behind closed doors of course).
