Created by: OkMan

Team: 2023-24 Nashville Predators

Initial Creation Date: Nov. 18, 2023

Published: Nov. 18, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Both have 4 goals
Smith’s shooting percentage (20%) > McDavid’s (10%)
Smith’s 5v5 goals (4) > McDavid’s (2)
Smith does all this, while putting up better defensive numbers and while being on a team with a significant lack of offense. Stats show that McDavid is PP merchant; on the other hand, Smith’s offense all comes 5v5. There’s an obvious answer here imo
