McDavid was already multi-millionaire many years before making it to the NHL
I vividly recall watching a Hockey Night In Canada many years ago, during which Ron MacLean and one of his guests discussed a young player destined to become the next phenomenon of the NHL.
They marvelled at his skill level and speed on the ice, even though he was just in his early teens. That player was none other than Connor McDavid.
As the years passed, McDavid's name continued to surface with glowing recommendations as he approached eligibility for the NHL. It became apparent that companies were closely monitoring him, eager to find a new face for their products and willing to pay millions of dollars to get ahead in the game.
At the age of 15, Reebok/CCM seized the opportunity and signed McDavid to a five-year, $2.5 million endorsement deal. The company recognized his undeniable talent and wanted to be the first to associate their name with his moniker.
Now at 26 years old, McDavid has been dazzling the NHL for years and shows no signs of stopping well into his late 30s. In the current season, he has already scored two goals with eight assists, totalling 10 points, despite his team facing challenges.
McDavid is determined to spark a change and lead his team to success in the upcoming games.
