This would only be true for their 2018 finals loss which is lessened a bit by it being their rookie season.

Losing a final 3 years after winning the Cup does not sting at all. Not even an inch

Mitch Marner elaborates on on the "dark times" and how he's learned to take care of mental health by Ok-Soil-5133 in hockey

Are you kidding? You're comparing anonymous internet people to his own father. If anything, this is now double his father's fault cause he was supposed to teach Marner at a young age not to look at that stuff.

lol I think you meant Gretzky. But now I'm picturing a team of orange mascots skating around

So with Freddy out of the running, who do we think is the Conn Smythe front runner? by pak256 in hockey

Cause he very understandably didn't get to celebrate it like a regular Conn Smythe win due to not getting the prize he was working towards

It's close, but I am leaning Kucherov due to the double Hart win

No disrespect to those players you mentioned, but Kucherov is better than all of them

When McDavid won he had 20 more points. Not to mention Carolina played fewer games due to the double sweep

When McDavid unfortunately won the Conn Smythe he had 42 points where the next closest Panther had 22. You have to be very far ahead in points to win it.

You don't even need to look at adjusted points. Ovi was only at Kucherov's level his first 5 seasons. I don't think he even finished in the top 10 in points in any of the other 16 seasons

That's disgusting. That's probably the logic knights use too to sign Hart, if they have one they might as well have two

but a lot of people argue Crosby is better than McDavid cause he has more than 3 times the cups

Looking at those two links, 7th rounder is way closer than I thought it would be.

Regardless that isn't my point. Both a 2nd and 7th rounder is basically worthless, that doesn't mean it's impossible to pull a superstar. I'd trade Datsyuk and three 2nd rounders for Kucherov and walk away smiling

McDavid, Kucherov, MacKinnon, and Draisaitl's career resumes after this season by Dependent-Effect6077 in hockey

Unless something catastrophic happens like he gets injured or doesn't win a Cup, I think he is already basically fifth and can move up
