This is the way I see it as well. Sutter isn’t as effusive with praise to his own players-see the Guadreau interview about what Sutter said to him after the penalty shot goal and the team after that win.

McDavid is a great player; but that comment was made to make a point to HIS team, not unabashed praise for McDavid
