Sorry if already posted. Stan Fischler had similar sentiments in a piece posted in the THN yesterday.

I love reading Sportsnet’s Mark Spector, especially since he’s a no-nonsense journalist. But the other day, Spector wrote something that I felt I should – in all fairness – challenge. He called Connor McDavid “The Best Player in the World.”
Of course, that’s easy to say, especially since a lot of people agree with that assessment – but that doesn’t mean that they’re right.
Frankly, they are not.
What McDavid happens to be is the most spectacular player, which is not nearly the same as being the best.
