It did not come to shock that McDavid won the Conn Smythe as he put up historic numbers in the Playoffs as he scored 8 Goals and 34 Assists for 42 Points in 23 games played.
When the NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman came out to award the Oilers Captain with the MVP trophy, McDavid was no where to be found. He decided to stay in the locker room with his team which is completely understandable, he doesn't want to be out there after losing the most important game of his life.
Now that the 2023-24 NHL season has concluded, the action wont stop there. Tomorrow, the 2024 Hall of Fame class will be announced and on June 28th-29th, have the NHL Entry Draft, followed by free agency on July 1st.
