Connor McDavid calls out the media over Hart trophy voting

Connor McDavid has a front row seat in Edmonton to watch his superstar teammate Leon Draisaitl go to work. While most would call McDavid the best player on the planet, Connor always sends all the praise Draisaitl's way, and he's hoping for once, the media does as well.

McDavid with a little shot at the media. He says he doesn't have a lot of faith in the media's voting for the Hart Trophy, but he thinks the players will "get it right" and name Draisaitl the Ted Lindsay winner.

100 points in back-to-back seasons and this year the German sensation could have easily hit 120 points. Draisaitl carried the load when McDavid was out, and somehow managed to carry the entire mediocre Oilers into a playoff spot.

Is Leon the MVP of the league? MacKinnon? Panarin? Let us know in the comments.
