NEW YORK – Edmonton Oilers centre Connor McDavid, Boston Bruins winger David Pastrnak and Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk have been named finalists for the Hart Trophy, given out annually to the NHL’s most valuable player.

McDavid led the league with 64 goals and 153 points this season, becoming the sixth player in NHL history to break the 150-point plateau in a single campaign.

The 26-year-old from Richmond Hill, Ont., is looking for his third Hart Trophy.
