| Publisher Description: Hockey fans had been talking about Connor McDavid since he was not yet a teenager. They had been watching his growth and development, and marveling at his feats on the ice. Fans compared him to Wayne Gretzky and Sidney Crosby, two of pro hockey's brightest stars ever. When the 2015 NHL draft finally arrived, all eyes were on McDavid, the number one pick at age 18. |
