would it be fair to say that Taylor Hall is better at making people around him better than mcdavid is because whole mcdavid has very little to work with he has draisitl( sorry for spelling) and nuge. Hall has what exactly, palmeri and hischier? hall seems to have dragged his team into the playoffs despite having a worse goalie and supporting team than mcdavid as opposed to Talbot great season last year?
