Edmonton Oilers superstar Connor McDavid showed up to a beer league game in Newmarket, Ontario, on Wednesday night, sparking major Toronto Maple Leafs rumors.

Of course, fans of the Leafs want Connor McDavid. The superstar is going to be a free agent next summer, and with no Stanley Cups, some think he will leave Edmonton behind.
If he does, then the Leafs will be one of the teams interested, and they might just be frontrunners given the fact that they are McDavid's hometown team.
On Wednesday night, McDavid fed into the rumors when he showed up to a beer league hockey game in Newmarket, Ontario.
He got on the ice and played some shifts, although his team lost and he did not score a goal. We don't think he was trying, but still, that goalie probably feels really good about himself.
In the aftermath of this beer league outing, Leafs Nation is out in full force, and they believe Auston Matthews is about to get a new superstar teammate.

Is Connor McDavid coming to the Toronto Maple Leafs?

Below, you can see that there are a ton of fans who believe McDavid will be wearing a Maple Leafs jersey next summer.
This is all wishful thinking, although McDavid's appearance dispels the narrative that he has severed all ties to Ontario since being drafted into the NHL.
With 2025 free agency drying up, it remains clear that the McDavid free agency cycle will be one to remember.
We can just imagine how much worse the rumors will get if McDavid refuses to sign an extension before the regular season starts.
