There’s always been a gap — Connor McDavid at the top, and everyone else chasing him. But this season, that gap is closing fast. Nathan MacKinnon isn’t just keeping up — he’s outpacing, outproducing, and outmuscling almost everyone in the league. As for Connor McDavid, well were 6 games in and he has yet to register a goal. Yeah you heard that right. In this video, we’re breaking down why, at this very moment, Nathan MacKinnon might just be the best player in the world.
What are your thoughts? Why is Connor not playing up to his potential right now? Should he playing playing with Leon Draisaitl? Drop a comment down below as I read and interact with every single one!

This is something i said years ago… Mackinnon has maybe a higher ceiling we will see. Either way they are both something I don't have words for most of the time. I am just glad we have them.
Lol PP argument is silly the avs pp is soo bad
Maybe McDavid is trying to show Edmonton how will they work without him
No point debating who is the better player.
First time i've stumbled upon your video, i like the way you do content. Subbed, i'm looking forward to check your vids. Keep up the good work and hit that 10k sub by the end of the year.
I'd take MacKinnon any day over McDavid he can match McDavid with speed but is way stronger they pretty much have the same assists, and now that MacKinnon had necas here he is getting a ton of scoring chances and should have the same amount of goals as McDavid. What would McDavid be without draisitle? Where its been MacKinnon all along in Denver. Come back when McDavid wins a cup and then we can bring up the conversation again. MacKinnon fed miko rantannin and still gets his points, but with Necas here now he's been feeding MacKinnon and they feed off of each other's skill and the avalanche are right now the scariest team in the NHL. Even jack eichel has past McDavid and won a championship before him and everything runs through Jack in Vegas. McDavid is good and with everyone mocking him in the media he will always be on the pedestal being praised. He can stay there and I'll keep taking MacKinnon every time and go win another cup this year!!!!!💥💣💥
When Nate makes it to the finals, his team wins the cup. When Connor makes the finals, they lose, bottom line.
Nates got a cup…😎
said this for years. Both very talented, canadians bow down to mcdavid but the real mack wears an avs sweater.
Its been this way since the beginning of last season
I think Nate is an all-around better hockey player than Connor. I think Nate was the best player in the world for many years
Stop yelling. That doesn't make you entertaining, it makes you obnoxious. Besides that, yeah man.
nate has been better than mcd for a couple years now..
McDavid has honestly been quietly falling off (for his standard) slightly the last few years and Mack has only been getting better. I dont know if the league is learning how to defend Mcdavid better or what.
Mac has been playing on another level to start the season. This is how he looked a couple years ago. Lots of drive, lots of hunger, focused, and.modt importantly positive and having fun. That is when Nate is at his best. When he gets in his own head and starts forcing certain playstyles, his performance suffers. Right now he is playing free and focused and is at his best.
We'll see, McDavid rises in the playoffs hard
I defend your right to say that.👍
I mean, Mack is a better 200 foot player. McDavid is a talented freak of nature. Dude is so fun to watch. It seems he has plateaued over the last couple seasons where Nate has seemed to close ground if not overtake McDavid is the best player in the world.
Until the playoffs then mcdavid turns it on another gear
Commenting, as per request
LMAO
Who is a champion…
Well it is a team game so claiming one individual is better is a tricky thing.
A big difference is that Nathan MacKinnon is a champion.
Connor McDavid is not a champion.
He hasn't won any championships.
And you can't guarantee championships in this sport.
McDavid has won lots of individual awards.
But this isn't golf or tennis.
It's a team game
I mean they are always pretty close point wise every season but it's still early Mcdavid now has a goal as of tonight and he will pass Nate soon I believe
Agree
Watch Nate in OT against Utah. You will change your mind. NO EFFORT.
Nate has always been better. However to be fair how someone does in this league is largely supported by the people around them. Look at the lines and compare line stats… you’ll see
Connor McCupless.
Nate and Kuch have been better than Mcdavid for years.. People just don't want to admit it
Nope….McKinnon will get worse….the hockey season is a long one… 😂
But Mackinnon has been producing more than Mcdavid for several years now.
He plays too bd in 3 on 3 to be considered the best. You have to completely rule out this factor if you're going to put him at the top, I don't..
