NFL stars at Super Bowl don’t know who Oilers’ Connor McDavid is

“He sounds like a Prime Minister.”

You’d be hard pressed to find a Canadian sports fan that doesn’t know who Connor McDavid is. Turns out, however, the Edmonton Oilers superstar isn’t quite as well-known south of the border—specifically in NFL circles.

There’s always fun to be had during Super Bowl week, so before Sunday’s big game between the Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots, NFL Canada decided to ask players from both teams a rudimentary multiple-choice question

Who is Connor McDavid?
A) Prime Minister
B) Hockey player
C) Award-winning actor

The Oilers and the NHL seemed to enjoy it.
