Brian McDavid's Influence on Connor's Career
Brian McDavid has been a big influence on Connor McDavid's hockey career since the kid was young. He coached the future Edmonton Oilers captain in the early years of Ontario minor hockey, helping guide several championship teams with the York Simcoe Express program.
Brian McDavid addressed Connor McDavid's mindset earlier in the 2025-26 NHL season when talking about his son's strong performances. Connor was always looking to get better, he said, even when he was already controlling games week in and week out. Connor McDavid went on to finish his regular season with another Art Ross Trophy and was still among the top Hart Trophy candidates before the Edmonton Oilers were eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
