That's not bad.

I guess you could criticize McDavid for not being an Art Ross and Selke finalist at the same time, but that's kind of a crazy criticism isn't it?

I feel like the fans/media that criticize guys like McDavid, or for the Flames, Iginla/Gaudreau/Tkachuk for the team's lack of success are people that either have a poor understanding of hockey or have an agenda.

That, is not the best player in the league let alone in the world.
