Andrey SenchenkoSport correspondentAll materialsEmail to the authorRussian superstar «Rangers» destroys the world's major hockey league. Give him the «Hart Trophy» already! Since the beginning of the season, absolutely all major North American media and Internet portals, as well as NHL media platforms, have compiled a variety of ratings of the best league hockey players at the moment. On the issue of leadership, Connor McDavid's candidacy did not cause controversy among anyone. And this is true: the eminent Canadian is excellent in absolutely all components of the game and with his class mercilessly raises the bar for the level of hockey. Sometimes it even seems that McDavid is a hockey absolute who has no weaknesses. But in New York, the McDee extravaganza was perceived as a challenge. It’s not hard to guess who exactly. Everyone knows that Artemy Panarin stepped aside from the Internet and switched to a push-button phone and reading books a long time ago, and therefore he hardly saw the NHL Network rating. Perhaps this is even for the better, because the authors of the rating put the Russian unfairly low — in 21st place. It's scary to imagine with what motivation Khlebushek would approach the new season if he knew about it.
