Connor McDavid Has Just Been Honored With Some Very Exciting News

Sidney Crosby will captain Canada onto the international stage for a fourth time, wearing captain's 'C' at the Four Nations Face-Off, soon to occur.

This is the fourth time Crosby will captain Canada in a best-on-best competition, having guided Canada to gold at the 2010 and 2014 Olympics and a championship at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey, respectively.

Joining him in captain's positions will be Edmonton Oilers' Connor McDavid and Colorado Avalanche's Cale Makar, both alternate captains.

A three-time Stanley Cup champion and two-time Hart Trophy recipient, Crosby continues to build a legend career-wise, in his 20th NHL campaign having reached 600 career markers and moved to ninth in all-time points, with 54 in 53 for the current campaign.

Now in his 10th campaign, McDavid redefines offensive mastery, with his eighth 100-point campaign in sight, having become the fourth-youngest and fourth-quickest player in the NHL record books to post 1,000 career points in January of the current campaign.

Makar, at 26 years old, is shaping a Hall of Fame resume, with a Stanley Cup, Conn Smythe, Norris, and Calder trophies in tow.

Canada, America, Finland, and Sweden will face off at Four Nations Face-Off, the first best-on-best competition in six years, Feb. 12-20 in Montreal and in Boston. Fans all across the country will have their eyes peeled for this very fun event.
