McDavid vs Toronto’s Media Pressure | Sports News
Description
Gavin McKenna, the projected No. 1 pick in the NHL draft, is set to join the Toronto Maple Leafs — and Connor McDavid, the Oilers’ superstar and former top pick, believes McKenna’s got the grit to thrive under Toronto’s intense spotlight.

With McDavid already a Hall of Famer and Stanley Cup chase still on, the debate sparks a bigger question: Is Seixeiro being too harsh — or hitting on a truth about the unique weight of playing in Canada’s biggest hockey city?
