First time in my life I've seen a losing team's player win MVP. I feel like that's pouring salt on the wound...

[jon_knee]

Our capt. Cares more about the actual end goal he can celebrate with his team than personal accolades. It was a stellar year Oil. The fanbase is still proud regardless

[DaveysWonderfulWorld]

It’s still incredible that Connor McDavid is one of two or three players to win the finals MVP trophy from the losing team

[Rosenrot]

I'm from Germany and it breaks my heart to see him in this condition. Connor stay strong your fans are on your side. 🇨🇦

[Certainteedy]

Man it hurts to see Connor like that, Oilers had such an exciting run.

[cbfbmc]

This is my pick for next year Stanley cup champions now he got a taste of what it's like to be in the finals and what it takes it to get to the raising the cup

[maximustk]

Connor is a first class guy, I’m sure he will be back next year -panther fan

[Mundanesoup]

I feel like its even more soul crushing the way they lost. Coming back from 3-0 just to lose in a game 7.

[Tacofiend]

Nothing to be ashamed about young man keep your head up you’ll get another chance

[Koof]

Lot of people forget that this is a team sport of course connor is not going to be phased by individual awards the only thing that matters to him is the cup

[eltafialisina]

You can’t always win, be proud of all you did and keep moving forward

[Wayne-tkmx]

Last time this happened youtube wasn't invented yet 😮

[BiggestChungus]

What the hell did that reporter expect?

[bradhuygo]

He’ll feel differently once some time passes. To win MVP in the NHL is massive (a lot less people win that compared to the Stanley Cup).

[trebor]

I don’t blame him. Which trophy would any hockey player rather have over the other? I’d be totally disappointed too.

[Arttu]

This clip is why the conn Smyth trophy should belong to the winning team. Nothing against McDavid but it's more enjoyable at the moment and to be fair, they won so wouldn't it assure something about importance.

Prove me wrong, if I'm just yapping

[nativeboii]

If you've never lost a really close game like that whether it be any sport ! U would DEF understand why he didn't grab the fucking conn smythe all you people saying he is a sore loser should really start watching the Edmonton Oilers. This guy is something we have NEVER seen before. Yes he skates fast but the way he uses his teammates and his playmaking abilities and his hands in tights is really something else to watch. Guy is a beast and I'm sure if u we're on his team when they went on that cup run I'm sure he would make u feel "part" of the team. Guy is a class act.

[davidwujczyk]

Coming back from 0-3 would have been epic

[EdisonRailfanner]

That would be my reaction too. He's wanted a cup his whole life, it was right there, and he lost it

[EvanSullivan-zm]

I don’t blame him he’s very competitive you play for the cup
