McDavid has it all. He is a complete package. But his best asset is his SPEED with capitals. He is maybe the fastest skater in the league, his speed is blistering. Not only that, but he can control that puck in that speed, and do anything he wants with it. It's sublime. He is a kind of player we haven't seen in the league before. There have been greats of yesterday, who molded the game with their play. There are some greats of today, like Crosby and Ovechkin. But Crosby does it with his edge control, it's sublime, it's superb, there is no enough adjectives. Ovie is a goal scorer, his shot and physical presence are unmatched, he is a true leader. But McDavid is the type of a modern player. He is fast. He handles the puck. And he is the best at it in the modern NHL.

So glad to see more hockey! as far as it goes for black players there's not a lot. Hockey unfortunately is seen as a white sport due to how expensive it is to play and that reputation is a bit of a barrier. There are programs making hockey more accessible for people and plenty push to make the sport more appealing for all. It just needs time to mature and it will be a more diverse sport really soon. The first man to break the colour barrier was Willie O'Ree and at the moment the players I can think of off the top of my head are P.K. and Malcolm Subban, Darnell Nurse, Wayne Simmons, Anthony Duclair, Evander Kane, and Dustin Byfuglien. There are more but the ones I've listed are all really good players.

There are no players on McDavid's level. One level down are Crosby, Ovechkin, Pasternak, Nathan McKinnon, and fellow Oiler Leon Draisaitl. To see another player as advanced beyond "normal" as McDavid, you'd have to look at Bobby Orr or Wayne Gretzky, or Mario Lemieux from decades past.

there's nothing inherently racist about hockey or its professional organizations, it's more geography than anything. it's a winter sport which means the average child can only play it in europe, north america etc, in countries and states that are predominantly white. canada produces the highest nhl players per capita, and countries like russia, finland, sweden also produce large amounts. canadas population is 3% black, russias is less than 1%, etc. america has a large hockey base, especially in the northern states, but it also has a huge competition from other sports like baseball, basketball and football, which are not as big in the previously listed countries.

There are certainly some black people in the NHL but the overwhelming majority of the league probably 90% or greater are white. To be fair a lot of the countries that produce a huge proportion of the NHL (Canada, Sweden, Russia, Finland, Czech, Slovakia) don't have particularly large black populations. The US is pretty much the only country with a decent hockey program that has a lot of black people. An explanation for the US is that sports like football, basketball and soccer tend to be more popular in the black community so even though there are quite a few black people there, not a lot of them are playing hockey.
