Even as an Oilers fan, i dont think I'm a fan of McDavid winning the Masterton just because his injury details and rehabilitation was made public while others havent over the years
Pretty lame to bring down Johns for the sake of McDavid. Both are worthy candidates.
Ian Laperriere won the Masterton without playing a single game the year he won it so...Lol Mcdavid has 76 points coming back from this while Johns has a whopping 1 game played. If you don't recognize the giant ocean between the 2 players and why Mcdavid should win this award I don't know how to drive common sense into ya.
Yes, in hindsight, the brilliance of McDavid makes it seem like a 'non-story'. It shouldn't be though. At the time, the whole hockey world was holding their breath, waiting for great news on his future.Dude gets injured in the last game of the season, has the whole summer for recovery and doesn't affect him in anyway.
If that was any other player it would be a non story.
The Canucks had two players alone go through personal tragedies. I guess everyone should win it then.Yep.
I’m just glad that there isn’t a player with a personal tragedy this year. Something like what Anderson went through.
I am sure a situation I’m unaware of will get posted in 3...2...
Did the media make a movie about Taylor Feduns recovery from that horrific fracture to his femur ? No and why would they ? He was and still is a fringe NHL player . The only reason this movie even exists is one of the darlings of the hockey media is involved . Don't get me wrong McDavid is a great player but don't think for second this movie would be made for "lesser" Oiler players. Don't even think Draisaitl would get that treatment .
This isn't a knock on McDavid but on the hype machine .
Anyone but Nylander, the leagues first embarresing nomination. McDavid would be a great winner.
Or is this just an imaginary video I am watching?
Not even a debate.
Anyone who just watched that will have zero argument.
If McDavid doesn’t win the Masterton, then the entire award is meaningless and invalidated.
No one knew really how bad the injury actually was, that recovery was crazy.
Well the hf board doctors know betterI’m sure it’s a great doc, but I don’t want to watch anything involving knee injuries. I’m too squeamish.
Outside the Vezina, Jack Adams and Norris, as NHL fans of McDavid we could potentially see him walk away with every other award this season.
Nah . Some random propaganda piece about McDavids recovery by the canadian hype media doesn't mean **** to me. It probably convinces the media but come on. The guy didn't even miss a game . Plenty of less known players go through hard if not harder recovery from even worse injuries . What they don't have is the media making PR movies for them.
