Connor McDavid is great at a lot of things; skating really fast, scoring power play points, and having no poker face whatsoever during draft lotteries. But he still has a few things to learn entering his sixth season in the NHL.
For one, defense. McDavid arguably gives up as many goals as his line with Leon Draisaitl scores when they’re on the ice. Two Hart Trophy recipients need to be better than -2 at 5v5 together, surely. Auston Matthews, a noted exceptional two-way forward, has reportedly been putting McDavid under his wing as they train together in Toronto, a city.
