Even behind closed doors, moments like these barely remain private, not in today's social media world. In recent days, there's been one going around of McDavid, thanks to an upcoming series called Faceoff: Inside the NHL on Amazon Prime, where McDavid is really emotionally speaking to his teammates following the Oilers' Game 2 loss to the Florida Panthers. <q>«It was never my plan to be the star of the show,» the Edmonton Oilers captain said jokingly after a 6-3 preseason loss to Calgary. «I think we wanted to dip our toe in, but - here we are - headfirst off the diving board.» - Connor McDavid</q> The teaser that dropped on Monday really showed McDavid, <a href='https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5790166/2024/09/24/oilers-connor-mcdavid-amazon-clip-viral/?source=emp_shared_article&s=09&fbclid=IwY2xjawFflAdleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHRBGSYLi4k1X4JXmrxGrLEm18ISBnxBxWeofnBkQvZ9oVFvhlbDncXbcmA_aem_SyvxXC1YR9nTk0lR91itVQ' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>very rarely, highly upset</a> For Edmonton forward Zach Hyman, McDavid's teammate, this outburst was a good sign of leadership. He saw the passion and drive, which is what he wants to see in the fight for the Stanley Cup. The captain's leadership isn't unfamiliar to Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch.

Connor McDavid knows all too well the attention that comes with many cameras. And so, he has warned people not to take everything that unfolds on the show at face value. Added spotlight and all, he's optimistic the documentary, which premieres October 4, will offer something meaningful regarding the game he loves.
