TSN.ca is celebrating McDavid's birthday this morning.
Its like a paid advertisement. Everyday its something shoehorned in.

Don't believe me? That this isn't fishy? Auston Matthews, who you may know plays for the Maple Leafs, is hurt and no one knows why. That headline is buried on the front page somewhere. Its TSN. Toronto. Ordinarily that would be the only headline. lol

in one music video him and the boyz gather around a communal urinal sink and pee on each other, in an homage to zoolander where derek and the boyz have a gasoline fight. creatively interwoven with clips of McDavid highlights

McDavid scoring 70 and the Oilers missing the playoffs would be hilarious

I'm sure Staples will write several articles why McDavid should win the Hart when missing the playoffs.

Here's a player with amazing 37 goals and 82 points in 55 games.
Has 41 of those points and 16 of those goals on the powerplay
And is a plus 2.
That in itself says alot. He's a stats cherry picker Conna is.
Its easy to put up gaudy points with his skill set when you don't care about defense, your team mates and winning.
He's literally the jackhole hitter in trouble with the curve actualizing and visualizing his own success while not giving a crap about his team mates.

I’m sure most of us have played on a team with players like this. Incredibly skillful but just not motivated to do everything to be successful as a team. Everything is rosy and everyone looks the other way as long as the results are good.
No one says anything for fear of disrupting things and it becomes a slow burn. I don’t think that anyone has taken on Mavi and Pissy in greaserville for fear of trade demands and jobs. Funnily enough, it’s most likely to be Kane to challenge Mavi and that’s not exactly a great role model either.
Seeing the Sportsnet magazine cover reminds me that this is a player that has always been feted for his offensive skills and never for his team skills.
Some snark this morning? The more individual awards Mavi picks up, the more it justifies this approach and the more it will cost to re-sign him. The less individual success means oilers don’t support him. The less team success, the more the Oilers are blamed and trade requests will be forthcoming. No crazy trade packages? The contract runs out and Mavi moves to whatever his dream destination is. It’s beautiful.

I'm cheering for Klim Kostin to have a ton of success, hopefully 20 goals and 20 assists or so.
Why . . . . because a 4 million dollar contract will really screw the Oilers.
And Holland is an idiot and will give it to him, sign Bouchard and McLeod for their potential
