It's been a pretty solid Wednesday night for Connor McDavid.
First, the Edmonton Oilers captain picked up the Ted Lindsay Award, presented to the "most outstanding player" in the NHL as voted by members of the NHLPA.
He was then named the EA Sports cover athlete for NHL 18, the popular hockey video game.
