Connor McDavid's favorite hockey player is Sidney Crosby. His favorite non-skating athlete is LeBron James.

He's now in the same club as his heroes, forever to be known as a No 1 pick.

McDavid's journey toward widely expected superstardom officially began on Friday night when the Edmonton Oilers grabbed him with the top overall selection in the NHL Draft in Sunrise, Florida.
