Don Cherry absolutely ripped Connor McDavid apart with his latest comments, bluntly saying that he would not make a good coach in the NHL in the future. Connor McDavid has been one to be counted on throughout the NHL <a href='https://www.nhl.com/oilers/player/connor-mcdavid-8478402' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>after being drafted by Edmonton first overall in 2015</a>. With his phenomenal acceleration, vision, and playmaking skill set, he has accumulated countless awards, including the Art Ross and Hart Memorial Awards. His skill set has brought him to the same level as elite players like Sidney Crosby and Wayne Gretzky. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1890940149082579102'> </a></blockquote></div> <a href='https://x.com/CoachsCornerDC' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Don Cherry</a>, former coach and commentator on episode 295 of the 'Grapevine Podcast', touched on if or how well McDavid can coach. Cherry admitted that elite players have a hard time coaching because what is second nature to them is in fact truly second nature, making teaching others without that same skill set troublesome. <h3>Don Cherry doesn't believe McDavid's on-ice skill will translate to being a good coach</h3> He went on to remark that McDavid might have difficulty doing the same. Through injury and struggles of his team, McDavid continues to remain phenomenal. In 2024, <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/edmonton-oilers/oilers-secret-weapon-in-the-finals-gets-revealed' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>McDavid led Edmonton to its first Stanley Cup Final appearance</a> since 2006. It seems, it seems as if they, they go into a world of their own. And McDavid won't make a good coach either. As great as he is, he won't make a great coach because they just, they go into a world of their own, Don Cherry said. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/CoachsCornerDC/status/1891524988118663609'> </a></blockquote></div> Though the team did not make it through, McDavid picked up the Conn Smythe Award as playoff MVP, part of only a small group of players to have brought home the prize without bringing home the title. This season, McDavid has accumulated 22 goals, 49 assists, and 71 points, solidifying himself among the league's top performers.
