With the first overall selection in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, the Edmonton Oilers are proud to select from the Erie Otters in the OHL, Connor McDavid.
Kids like Connor – we all see how they play – you’ve got to have enough time with Connor to see what kind of kid he is. He’s a wonderful player, a wonderful young man, and he’s going to represent our game so well for a long, long time. He’s one of those kids that comes along once in a while – loves the game, has a great passion for the game, respects the game.
