Lol. Love all the MacKinnon haters here. The dude is having the best season in franchise history and you all are saying he isn't the best on the team. Then the McDavid fan boys..... you'll soon see Nate Dogg win the MVP.
Love you, Ross. Let's go get a cup!
Yeah Mcdavid clears and its not even remotely close. Dont put mackinnon in the same conversation as mcdavid you’ll sound like a fool
@@Markymark-gg6qf ya everyone in the NHL puts Mackinnon in the same conversation as McDavid so I guess all the nhl players are fools
@@RIPJimmyA7X nobody says that dawg😂😂. Everyone knows mcdavid clears
Kuch!
Can’t just be happy for him, they have to argue that someone else is *CLEARLY* better 🙄
Ross is the friggin man! Became a fan fav in Denver right away. Rock solid guys like RC are crucial to a 🏆 run. Great stuff boys! GO AVS!
I've always said players like Ross become more important in the playoffs than the regular season, similar to Cogs
@@RIPJimmyA7X Absolutely. Box scores & even advanced metrics don't tell the full story of what it took to lift 🏆 For my💰 SC playoffs is the best in sports. Oh & btw, LONG LIVE THE REV!
This is my first EN pod and being a big Avs guy, perfect pod to start off. Cheers Chris & Dan!
Tampa fan through and through, and Kuch is in a league of his own certain ways, but I’d choose Nate over Kuch if had to choose one. Nate is unreal on his feet, his stick handling, edge work, explosive power, intensity, shooting, it’s all top notch insane. Kuch is a sorcerer with the puck. His play making ability is unmatched. He’s playing chess on the ice. Instead of all the who’s better than who, enjoy watching some of the best players ever play the game night after night. To watch the race each night of points. The highlights of all of them. These dudes all are the elite of the elite, and they each are the mvp of their team, one can win at the end, and whoever does, they deserve it.
I’m now an even bigger fan of this guy! What a cool dude
Having gone to prep and done the similar route as Ross, really cool story from him about his life and decision process.
Great interview
Helllllll ya this guy is awesome 🍻
Empty netter podcast is SOOOO FRIGGEN GOOD
GoAvsGo!!!🏒🥅
Lightning legend
Sweet hat
He seems to be an intelligent young man
I go to Sushi Den all the time, Ross ain't kidding.
Let the guy answer y’all’s questions boys!! Shitt
roscoe is getting after it himself
My man left out the Canucks lol u got another thing comin bwoi
Can every Hart voter be required to listen to his comments about Nate...the same guy who played 2yrs with Kucherov.I understand hes here now,so he cant say Kucherov is best...but he also didnt have to be so definitve,& say Mckinnon is the best by a ways...hopefully this is Nates yr.I had no issue the year he finished 2nd to Drasaitil,but he shouldve won the year Taylor Hall beat him by 1 point. Jokic is a lock to win another MVP this yr-but Ball arena should be the home of both reigning MVPs next fall...& hopefully we get simultaneous June parades-after having 1 each of the last 2 Junes.
Nate is 4-0 against McFraud in the playoffs
As an unbiased Blackhawks fan, McDavid is clearly the best player in the world
McJesus doesn't have the hockey sense to replicate those bull rushes over & over & over, even when they know its coming. Nate takes private power skating lessons. He has a unique way of puck handling while rocketing thru a defense. As a result, MacK has by far the most speed bursts & shots than anyone. All three goals in his latest hat trick were prime exanple of how McDavid is just not on that same level. Nate has the physical recovery that nobody else, as mentioned by Bednar. Connor has the best physical attributes but doesn't use them to the level of 29.
Mcdavid????????
Shut up??????
@@Emma_2Banksur a goof
@@Emma_2Banks good one🤡
Ross is too nice of a guy to say it and you’d never say your current situation is worse than it was, but sounds kind of like Ross is sick of Mackinnons personality compared to how things were in Tampa…the way he talks about Mackinnons intensity/anger doesn’t exactly sound like a ringing endorsement…”stammer and heddy led by example and didn’t have to say much” versus “MacKinnons not angry just wants to win so bad” lol
This might be beyond you but people who take their craft seriously actually appreciate being held accountable and pushed harder
What? That's not how I heard it at all
kucherov >
He isn’t even the best player on his team let alone the nhl
But he’s a good player so that’s all that matters
@@jdepaz5933 ya he’s real good. The best offensive defenceman in the game at the moment. But to say he’s the best player in the league is wild
@@mctoads8230 yea I agree lol
@@jdepaz5933 👌
Lmao whatever, no matter what mackinnon does he will just never be considered the best. Mack is the goat!!! People just love there mcdoodle cock sucking addiction.
Mcdavid way better
MacAltitude isn't even top 5.
altitude only matters after being there for a week. Once the season starts, everyone is on equal ground. The altitude excuse is prime example of stupidity & groupthink in media.
@@petrpumpkineater Check the home vs away splits of all the top scorers and get back to me.
@@petrpumpkineater Examine the home/away splits.
Hands down it is Nikita kucherov.
He gets all his points with an empty net. Fraud couldn’t even beat Mack in the Final
funny how this dude played with both and what his opinion is ...
@ruskokollektiv5457 And he favored his current teammate? No f'n way! Never seen that before.
You can’t say hands down, even myself as an Avs fan I can’t say hands down Mack is better than kuch. Like you can’t say that. Unless you don’t watch hockey or are an irrational person but you can’t say that. This race right now, Mack, kuch, McDavid, Matthew’s. U can’t say hands down. It LITERALLY comes down to personal opinion. If u wanna say kuch is better that’s fine, I’ll argue but I also won’t disagree, but you cannot say, as a rational human being and hockey fan that it’s “hands down”
Kuch is a nice player, very good, but he's no MacKinnon
Nate is my fav player not in a Bolts jersey!
