Sure. But maybe he was overhyped. The media wants a generational player. MacKinnon had hype he grew into. RNH had huge hype. So did Yakupov. But usually these generational players - Gretzky, Sid, McDavid, Makar, Orr - they hit the ground running and while they have a learning curve it just starts at a way higher level and they don’t look back. MacKinnon is an exception.
If Bédard turns into Eichel or Toews that’s just fine. But I think they were expecting McDavid II
