Nikita Zadorov, a player for the Canucks, praises Nathan MacKinnon, calling him 'the best player in the world' and stating he would build a team around MacKinnon due to his Stanley Cup win. MacKinnon leads in scoring with 113 points this season, raising questions about his potential Hart Trophy win despite competition from Kucherov and McDavid.
McDavid? Matthews? Nah. For Zadorov, it's the complete package in NHL leading scorer MacKinnon. "If I were to build a team, I would build around him over those two guys because he's a winner. He has won a Stanley Cup." #Canucks #Avalanche
