In any event, I am listening to SN960 right now, and I think I heard them say that Crosby got to 500 faster than McAvi. Does anyone have the actual numbers?

It's actually not. It's frustrating to see people who are new NHL fans get fed this lie that the Oilers are somehow good nad McDavid is the greatest player in history.
I know a lot of casual hockey fans who seem to think McDavid and the Oilers are the top of the crop. They must be. Every NHL Instagram highlight is a McDavid one, even from games in which they lose. Popular YouTubers focusing solely on McDavid's supposed awesomeness, despite statistical evidence to the contrary. I was explaining to my buddy from England how I just don't understand why the NHL pumps the tires of this s*** team in this s*** city in the middle of Canada's tundra. Even before McDavid got there. It just doesn't make sense from a marketing perspective.
