TORONTO - As Connor McDavid was going through his draft year, agent and Hall of Famer Bobby Orr knew his client had to get stronger to play at the NHL level.
After a summer of training McDavid feels like he has done that, and now he's ready to showcase his skills at the Edmonton Oilers' training camp later this month.
"I feel as good as ever and as strong as ever," McDavid said Tuesday at the NHL Players' Association rookie showcase.
McDavid took the ice with 38 fellow prospects at Mattamy Athletic Centre at the old Maple Leaf Gardens as he continued his journey toward his first NHL season.
