A year after winning the Conn Smythe Trophy despite coming up short in the Stanley Cup Final, Connor McDavid is favored to be named NHL Stanley Cup Playoff MVP.

Lauren McDavid, the wife of Edmonton Oilers superstar Connor McDavid, is celebrating the official opening of her new businesses as the Stanley Cup Finals kick off.

Less than four months after McDavid’s overtime goal gave Canada a 3-2 victory against the United States at the 4 Nations Face-Off, Doug Armstrong and Bruce Cassidy are witnessing the Oilers captain take his game to a level the Panthers probably haven’t seen before, both in terms of his play and leadership.
