There’s no doubt that Connor McDavid is the NHL’s brightest young star. After all, the second-year star hit the 100-point mark last season and won the Art Ross Trophy for the most points of any player in the league. He did all of this before his 21st birthday.
To put things in perspective: when he went to Las Vegas in June to attend the NHL Awards show and claim his trophy, he was unable to go into any of the casinos or bars. That’s unreal.
He was the undeniable no. 1 pick in 2015 and the Edmonton Oilers are flourishing now due to his talent.
