Charlie McAvoy easily leads the Bruins in ice time among skaters and the team's top shot-blocking all-situation defenseman is an early 1st round pick. He should be a media sensation but he's American, and playing for an American team. To TSN and Sportsnet he barely exists.
Timo Meier is the leading scorer among Shark wingers this postseason (plus was a 30-goal scorer in the regular season) and was a top-10 draft pick, but he is Swiss and plays for a small U.S. market. Canadian media are forgiven for barely mentioning him.
