A third fan wrote, “Not the best player in the world anymore”. However, some fans disagree and have continued to defend the star player.

A fan wrote, “Breaking news Connor McDavid falters for one week in the last 10 years”, while another fan wrote, “He really deserved the last week off imo. He too needs rest. Not sure what management are thinking. For him it’s like the first two weeks of the year coming off the game 7 loss in the SCF.”
