This is pretty funny. Gene Principe hosts a panel of SN analysts about the Hart, which they didn't talk about beforehand, and goes into it just assuming that it's going to be a discussion about Leon Draisaitl, and why Leon Draisaitl is going to win. He even asks Johnston - rather than the obvious question of "who do you think will win" - if the absence of McDavid during part of the season is the reason Draisaitl will win, to which Johnston says, "actually I have Panarin winning". Then the analysts start talking about how they had Draisaitl second or third on their ballots and bring up MacKinnon, Panarin, Pastrnak, Hellebuyck and others, at which point Principe just tries to bring the discussion back to the Oilers.
This is just such a good example of what's wrong with the media up there.
