Before entering the NHL, Connor McDavid was a minor part of the OHL from 2012 to 2015, representing the Erie Otters team. With a short-end career and the opportunity to get his NHL draft a year before getting into eligibility, the Edmonton Oilers handpicked Connor to be their first pick in the draft. It was a selection worthy of appraisal.

The draft led forward to a three-year rookie contract deal between Edmonton and Conner for $11 million. Coming in beautifully with the wins since then, the player’s contribution in terms of performance came off quite strong. This is despite facing a minor injury in the rookie season that left him behind for around 30 games.
With his three-year deal ending in 2017, Conner signed an eight-year contract extension worth $100 million. The new contract coming into effect in the 2018-2019 season saw the Oilers’ center setting his roots now in the team. He then created some top highlight moments, bagging two major honors, including the Art Ross Trophy and the Ted Lindsay Award.
But this doesn’t end here. The $30 million net worth is not just limited to his contract. Additionally, he generates additional income from various revenue streams related to his career.
McDavid’s endorsement money is more than any NHL stars
In addition to his contract deals, Connor McDavid’s prominence in terms of net worth also stems from his endorsement deals. With an annual salary worth $18,006,681, his endorsements make a sum of $6 million, including his partnerships with businesses like CIBC, BioSteel, Canadian Tire, Canadian telecommunications company Rogers, Alo Yoga, and Bodyarmor sports drinks.
His multi-year endorsement deal signed with the Canadian sports drink company was made at the beginning of last year after facing some issues with the BioSteel company. The endorsement, however, aims to advertise across North America and remains the second major partnership signed with a Canadian athlete.
It also aims to prosper national marketing campaigns. It includes retailing, out-of-home advertising, and social media campaigns. He is also a brand ambassador for BetMGM, a sports betting company.
