It takes a particularly exceptional level of greatness for a large group of people to perfectly agree on something. Connor McDavid did that by winning the Hart unanimously in 2021 — and he's been better this year. ✍️ DNBSports | domluszczyszyn

The power play appears to have barely skipped a beat in Barrie’s absence. The Oilers were scoring 13.12 goals per 60 with Barrie on the roster. They’re at 12.33 goals per 60 withMcDavid is the reason for that. He’s not only the entry-zone cheat code as the darting puck carrier, but he’s also an agent of chaos for defending teams once the Oilers have possession inside the blue line. McDavid roves around with unpredictability that is nightmarish for the penalized club.

McDavid is on pace for 155 points — just think of McDavid’s numbers if his teammates had finished off a few more chances this season. At five-on-five, McDavid is doing all he can to put up gaudy numbers; it’s nowhere near his fault that they’re not translating, That he’s still on pace for 155 points is a triumph. Consider the extra power-play points a market correction for all the five-on-five points heThe Hart Trophy is awarded “to the player adjudged to be the most valuable to his team.”

Take McDavid’s 5.9 wins off the Oilers and they fall to 68 points — 10th in the Western Conference. That would be disastrous considering this is McDavid’s eighth season and the Oilers reached the final four a year ago.
