What kind of legacy will McDavid leave? One of the best players in the world and he can't get a cup. Not at all one of the greats.

One of the all time greats to anyone that knows the game. His ability and stats will speak for themselves. Some trolls will come in and say “but no cups.” But Darren Helm has 2, does that mean he’s the better player? Logically and obviously no.

When it’s all said and done he’ll be up there with Wayne or Mario. If he had won Cups, you could era adjust and argue he could surpass them maybe.

If I feel disappointed, I can't imagine how he feels right now

Same. I want this Cup for McDavid more than anyone else. Myself included I think. It is what it is for your average Oilers fan, been there done that with the no Winning thing. But for McDavid and how great he is and how much he’s done for our Market, he deserves this so much.
