Connor McDavid wore this Blue CCM Helmet with Oakley Shield from November 11, 2016 through January 12, 2017, during his Art Ross Trophy-winning 2016-17 National Hockey League season.
This helmet has been exclusively authorized for authentication and distribution by the Connor McDavid-Edmonton Oilers-MeiGray Group Game-Used Equipment Program, designed to protect the integrity of the dynamic NHL superstar's game-used items.
This helmet has been registered with hologram number MGA005576. The hologram has been affixed to the helmet.
This helmet has been photo-matched to a series of home games during the 2016-17 season. A photographic LOA will be included with this helmet to the winning bidder.
This helmet has been photo-matched to six games at Rogers Place in Edmonton during the period McDavid used the helmet: A 3-2 loss to the Dallas Stars on November 11, 2016; a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on December 3; a 3-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on December 11; a 3-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on December 29; a 5-3 loss to the San Jose Sharks on January 10, 2017; and a 3-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils on January 12. The helmet contains the NHL Centennial sticker on the back right side of the helmet. This sticker replaced the NHL Shield sticker beginning January 1, 2017.
McDavid won the 2016-17 Art Ross Trophy with 100 points, including an NHL-leading 70 assists. Having turned 20 years old in January, only Sidney Crosby at age 19 (2007) and Wayne Gretzky (13 days younger) at age 20 (1981) were younger Art Ross Trophy winners.
McDavid scored two goals and two assists in the Oilers’ six-game defeat of the San Jose Sharks in the first round of the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
At 19 years and 266 days old, the Oilers entrusted their leadership to the Richmond Hill, Ontario, native whom they selected first overall in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, making him the youngest captain in National Hockey League history on October 5, 2016.
McDavid did not disappoint. The Oilers clinched their first Stanley Cup playoff berth since 2006 on March 27, 2017, elevating McDavid into serious contention for the Hart Trophy as NHL Most Valuable Player.
McDavid burst onto the international hockey scene in 2013, when he played for the Canadian U18s at the IIHF World Championships. He scored a goal and added two assists in his debut against Slovakia and had a hat trick against Sweden, leading a plethora of hockey scouts to dub him "The Next One.”
McDavid spent three fabulous junior seasons with the Ontario Hockey League's Erie Otters, where he tallied 97 goals and 188 assists in 167 games.
