Connor McDavid, widely regarded as hockey's best player, is competing in the Stanley Cup Final with the Edmonton Oilers. Known as 'McJesus' and often compared to LeBron James, McDavid's performance in the final is seen as a pivotal moment that could elevate his status among American sports fans. Despite his superstar status in the hockey world, McDavid remains relatively unknown to the general American audience. The NHL and its partners view the Stanley Cup Final as an opportunity to showcase McDavid and potentially increase his popularity in the United States. This is McDavid's chance to cement his legacy on the biggest stage of his career.
