Video was released earlier this evening showing Team Canada off the bus with Connor McDavid wearing a sharp tan suit which looks quite familiar from another special event - his wedding.
McDavid was sporting the same tan suit that wore during his wedding rehearsal which many feels that he's dialed in and is ready for one of the biggest games of his life.
And not only that, Connor McDavid delivered entirely after entering this game with his heart on his sleeve. McDavid scored the overtime winner for Team Canada, and had a classic reaction of hockey player humility.
McDavid's wife Lauren revealed who their matchmaker was
During a lull in action, McDavid's wife Lauren explained in an interview with ESPN, who their matchmaker was as former Oilers turned Sportsnet analyst Luke Gazdic was responsible for their relationship.
You know who Luke Gazdic is? We're like kind of on a blind date in Toronto. That was 10 years ago now, he was 18, I was 19. It was funny because I had to use my ID to get us a bottle of wine because he was underage.

Team Canada looking to extend it's wins against the United States
McDavid and his Canadian teammates have been dialling in and readying themselves for this showdown as they were still processing their loss to the United States just days earlier.
That game was a fight filled event early on and the Americans dominated the physical side of the game.
Canada looks to be the quicker team and having very pace that they have shown in other games. They also hope to have their skillsets kick in and show the world that they have the edge.
This tournament will likely change the course of the NHL and their All Star Weekend as this has been deemed a success with the players taking charge and promoting their game to the world on a country level rather than a conference level.
The fans love it and it will likely be here for many years to come.
