1. History on ice! Connor continues to impress as he leads his Oilers through the playoffs. Perhaps one of his most dazzling stats…Connor has recorded 7 straight multi-point games this playoffs. He’s just one away from tying Wayne Gretzky’s record of 8 straight! 
  2. Meet Lenard! That’s the name of Connor’s adorable Miniature Bernedoodle. Nicknamed Lenny for short, the pup was voted “Best Dog” by fans as part of the 2020 NHL Fan Choice Awards, and we can totally see why!
  3. I want candy! Connor has a sweet tooth and he’s not afraid to admit it. He says one of his favorite treats is black licorice, something he’s indulged in since he was a kid! 
  4. The youngest to ever do it. When Connor was named Oilers’ Captain back in 2016, he became the youngest player to EVER be captain in NHL history at the seasoned age of 19 years and 266 days old!!!
  5. “Hey AD!” Yes, that’s AD as in Architectural Digest! Last fall, Connor and his girlfriend Lauren showed off their Edmonton home as part of AD’s “Open Door” feature. Complete with a sports court in the basement, it’s a home you’ll want to peek inside of!

I created Fangirl Sports Network as a place for female sports fans to follow their favorite teams with content and coverage that speaks directly to females. It started with one and then eight and now 32 NFL Fangirls and 15 NBA Fangirls.
