The Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid gave his honest opinion on Toronto Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews.

In Toronto, one of the biggest storylines of the summer has been the captaincy change. John Tavares gave the "C" to Auston Matthews in a summer marked by many changes for the Leafs.

There's no denying that Auston Matthews is one of the best players in the League, and he just got major support from the best player in the League: Connor McDavid.

The Oilers' captain, who's already set to enter the NHL history books as one of the best players of all-time, shared his honest opinion on Matthews, and he didn't shy away from praising the new Leafs' captain.

In a recent interview, McDavid stated:

"First and foremost, he's an amazing player, great player, but he's a great person, highly intelligent, loves the game, loves the Leafs. I think he's a great captain."

It's not everyday that you get such comments from the best in the League, but Matthews deerves every words.

On the ice, he has proven his immense talent. Off the ice, players get to see another side that fans don't often witness. Everyone knows that he's a great person, but to see McDavid, who plays in another Canadian market, praising him, msut be special for Matthews.

Leafs fans sure hope to see him have another great season, marking the new chapter of his career as the captain of his team.
