For the first time all season, Nathan MacKinnon is not the leader in the scoring race. 

With a recent surge and MacKinnon slowing down a little bit, Connor McDavid has once again asserted himself at the top of the NHL's food chain as their current scoring leader with 62 points, one ahead of MacKinnon. 

It's shaping up to be one of the best award races of the season. Based on fantasy value, MacKinnon still holds the edge due to his extremely high shot volume and face-off wins, but the gap is certainly closing. 

Who do you think will win the Art Ross Trophy this season as the league's top scorer?
