Sidney Crosby had 135 points in 59 games during his 17-year-old season playing for Rimouski in the QMJHL.
Connor McDavid had 99 points in 56 games during his 17-year-old season playing for Erie in the OHL.
Connor Bedard had 100 points in 62 games during his 17-year-old season playing for Regina in the WHL.
Gavin McKenna still has another full season of hockey to play before he’s draft eligible in the NHL.
The kid is currently riding a 35-game point streak.
But the one thing that sets Gavin McKenna apart from the rest?
Holy shit this kid has some jam.
What a combo that was!
Perfect hack to the hands.
Up 5-3 late in the 3rd period, this kid means business.
He’s not going to let opponents get away with any nonsense just because the game is almost over.
But you also don’t want to leave them exposed for opponents to take a run at.
But when it comes to a kid like Gavin McKenna?
Well he’s from the Yukon Territory.
Just a workhorse from Whitehorse.
He has no problem with protecting himself out there, and inflicting a little damage of his own.
I don’t think tanking necessarily exists in the NHL.
These guys all care a little too much to go into every game trying to lose.
But we all know how these things typically work out.
So he’ll either end up in Pittsburgh or Chicago.
