**Just to state that I am having a very hard time still in running a team day to day, I'm just having a hard time getting into the game so I have decided to just sit back and simulate following what should be the next big thing, Connor McDavid.**

Connor McDavid (born January 13, 1997) is a Canadian major junior ice hockey player for the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). A centre, McDavid was selected first overall in the 2012 OHL Entry Draft. Prior to the draft he was granted Exceptional Player status, only the third player given that status since its creation in 2005. He was awarded the Emms Family Award as the best first-year player in the OHL for the 2012–13 OHL season. McDavid will be eligible for the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.

McDavid played minor hockey with the Toronto Marlboros of the Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL). In 2011–12 he recorded 33 goals and 39 assists for 72 points in 33 games, and was named the GTHL Player of the Year.[1] Because of his high level of play, he was granted Exceptional Player status by Hockey Canada and the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) and was allowed to be selected in the 2012 OHL Priority Selection at age 15, a year earlier than other players.[2] He was the third player given that status since its creation in 2005; John Tavares was granted it in 2005, followed by Aaron Ekblad in 2011.[1] McDavid was selected first overall by the Erie Otters at the Priority Selection.[3] As the first overall selection, McDavid was awarded the Jack Ferguson Award, which is given to the first pick of the OHL Priority Selection.[4] Starting in his second game of the season, McDavid recorded a point in fifteen consecutive games, and was named the OHL Rookie of the Month for both October and November.[5] During a game against the Owen Sound Attack on March 9, 2013, McDavid recorded two assists, giving him 37 for the season and setting a new team record for assists by a rookie. He also tied Tim Connolly for most points by a first-year player with 62.[6] In the team's final game of the season, March 16 against the Guelph Storm, McDavid recorded four assists, giving him 66 total points during the season and passing Connolly for the most points by an Otters rookie.[7] McDavid finished the season with the most assists by an OHL rookie with 41 and second in scoring for first year players with 66 points.[8] In recognition of his play, McDavid was awarded the Emms Family Award as the top rookie in the OHL and named to the OHL First All-Rookie Team.[5] Dallas Stars's general manager at the time Jim Nill said of McDavid that, "Well, he's a franchise player. Somebody is going to draft him and he's going to be the cornerstone of the franchise for 15 years, for 20 years. Those players only come along so often."

This next season, McDavid will be leading the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League.
