Mcdavid is the best right now, no question.

A better question is 20 year old Sid vs 20 year old Mcdavid. I'd call that one just about a toss up.

Never thought I'd say it so soon, but yes right now McDavid is better than Crosby. I thought McDavid's time would come SOON, but the day has come.

McDavid has absolute trash around him and he's basically doing it by himself. That's not to punish Crosby for having better teammates but flip the scenarios and I don't think Crosby does what his counterpart is doing on the Oilers

And I hate typing this as a Pens fan, but it's reality.

McDavid entering his prime and Crosby exiting his prime. Still think Crosby is #2, and I would probably take him in the playoffs as well due to the way playoffs are played. But regular season, nobody comes even close to McDavid IMO. The shit this kid does every single shift is incredible. He could have 0 points certain nights and is still be first star worthy, simply sublime.
