These Stats Prove Connor McDavid is The Best NHL Player Ever
A recent statistic has further solidified Connor McDavid's status as arguably the greatest hockey player to ever grace the ice.
Joining an elite club of hockey legends, McDavid is now among the select few players who have achieved 170+ points in both the regular season and postseason within a single year. This puts him in the esteemed company of icons like Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Mike Bossy, and Jaromir Jagr.
Impressively, in the modern salary cap era, the closest anyone came was McDavid himself, with 158 points. This achievement underscores McDavid's exceptional prowess and cements his legacy in the annals of hockey history.
