Underrated Brilliance of a Champion 

Damn didnt even realize all those trophies plus the points he did in every career for being a defensive player

Ppl couldn't get off mcdavid's nuts long enough to appreciate anyone else longer than 5 secinds

ESPN is actually dogshit. They don’t know anything about hockey

ESPN only cares about McDavid. Plus South Florida hockey is something the media will always love to underrate. Not saying that's fair, he and Bobrovsky belong in the Hall of Fame.

I'm not surprised. All we heard was McDavid, McDavid, McDavid. No Pro team from Florida ever gets any respect or recognition. It's because all the attention goes to the franchises that have been around for 100 years. Any team from Florida is young by comparison, so therefore they can't be any good. Well the Panthers showed them.

@@HMul-po3yb Except you don't hear this kind of willful indifference with Vegas or Seattle or Columbus for that matter, and they haven't even been around 30 years so much as won a cup. Florida as a state in general is the butt of many jokes, sports related or otherwise and many of them well deserved. But the NHL has no one to blame but themselves for sending some of its greatest players right now down there. And you know what's even worse? *Tampa* doesn't even get that much flack. People just forget that the Panthers have had amazing moments all throughout their history just because they spent the majority of it severely underperforming.

I wonder is he still underrated...

Yes he is​@@ilkkak3065

He has 1 lady byng

​​@@ilkkak3065Hooked on hockey mag just made a list of every teams best players from last 2-3 years and that wasn't Barkov. Which kind of makes the point still valid. Also the players still voted him underrated in January. So players think he should be valued even higher than he often is.

Ahhh someone else caught that

nailed it !!!

The reason he is underrated is clear One of the playoff games against rangers one of the commentators says something along this: matthew tkachuk is the reason panthers are playing so well and spine of this defence first playstyle while the truth is panthers would crumble to DUST without barkov 2 way play And its quite clearly also when you look at different broadcastings and interviews = who is the person that reporters stop first? Matthew cuz he is more media sexy

@@Jasonboy765 "crumble to dust" is too strong words there

@@Jasonboy765to be fair, i don’t think Sasha likes media that nuch

@@horseygirl03 insignificant and not the point

Ik misspoke and didnt catch it, my bad.

He is Him.

Good or bad? I feel like you might actually die of alcohol poisoning playing that game

mistake that slipped through my bad

Agreed, Hes like the Jeter of this sport rn. Wins does all the little things, but wont get the MVP consideration he deserves.
