On April 7, 2012 the Erie Otters selected Connor McDavid with the first overall pick in the 2012 OHL Priority Selection and right from the beginning McDavid began racking up awards. In McDavid’s first season with the Otters he would go on to win Rookie of the Month for the months of October and November. At the season’s conclusion McDavid would finish with 25 goals and 41 assists setting a franchise record for most rookie points in Otters history, good enough to win the 2013 Emms Family Award for OHL Rookie of the Year. Over the stretch of his 3 seasons with the Otters McDavid would end up with a total of 97 goals and 188 assists (285 points). While the awards are too numerous to list, Connor McDavid’s time with the Otters will always be remembered. Upon being drafted to the NHL, McDavid’s Erie Otter jersey was put on display at the Hockey Hall of Fame.
