Connor McDavid

 


McDavid, Connor

Position : C

13-01-1997 Richmond Hill, ON, CAN

Youth team / club formateur : York Simcoe MHA

 
His mother was a skier, but Connor chose ice hockey, which was his father's sport in high school.
McDavid first skated at age three, and was playing hockey the next year. He played against older players throughout his junior career. Mature beyond his years as a junior.
Emerged as the most talented and talked about junior since Sidney Crosby. He was granted "Exceptional Player" status as a junior, which permitted McDavid to play in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) a year earlier than would otherwise be permissible for a player his age. He was only the third player to receive that status, after John Tavares and Aaron Ekblad.
Outstanding talent with tremendous skating ability and awesome offensive awareness.
He is not only the fastest skater but also able to make big plays at top speed.
World champion 2016.

Sa mère skieuse aurait voulu qu'il suive sa voie, mais il a choisi le sport de son père au lycée, le hockey sur glace. McDavid a commencé à patiner à 3 ans, et à jouer au hockey à 4 ans. Doté d'une maturité précoce, il a affronté des adversaires plus âgés durant toutes ses années juniors.
Junior le plus talentueux et médiatique depuis Sidney Crosby. On lui conféra le statut de "joueur exceptionnel" en junior pour lui permettre de rejoindre l'Ontario Hockey League (OHL) une année avant l'âge requis. Ce fut le troisième homme à recevoir ce statut, après John Tavares et Aaron Ekblad.
Un talent exceptionnel avec d'incroyables capaités de patinage et un esprit offensif remarquable.
C'est non seulement le hockeyeur le plus rapide, mais il est aussi capable de produire de grandes actions à pleine vitesse.
Champion du monde 2016.
