The McDavid family has admitted that they had to lie about his age to first get Connor into hockey!


«It was a bit frustrating, because he missed the cutoff by 13 days,» Kelly McDavid explained. «We told him, ‘If they ask for your birth certificate, we'll have to tell them,' but they never did.»

It sure seems to have paid off however, as Connor McDavid truly is a franchise talent.
