The 2015-16 NHL Season is very young and already Connor McDavid in his rookie season is living up to all the hype. I have watched every game that the Edmonton Oilers and Connor McDavid have played and he is the real deal.
I have read many comments about this young super star whom Wayne Gretzky has said is the best draft pick he has seen in 30 years and there are those who say he is just another product of the media, some have called him McHype and others some things that are not really repeatable here.
However, if you watch him play game in and game out all those negative comments and names that people like to call him fade away as he makes a nice deflection to score his first goal against the Dallas Stars in only his 3rd game, as he takes a pass from Taylor Hall and puts it nicely in the net or when for instance as he has already on various occasions sends the puck out front to Yakupov who puts it in the net. Then of course who can forget that goal against Detroit as he undressed the goalie or that 3 point night in Calgary helping Edmonton win the first Battle of Alberta this year.
These are just a few examples of his excellent play this rookie year for Connor McDavid. Remember now we are only 8 games in and we have all this and much more to say. Like for instance his 8 points in 8 games, not bad for a kid who is only 18 years old. Cheers for now.
