Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers had an outstanding 2022-23 season, receiving four awards at the NHL award ceremony on Monday in Nashville. Lauren Kyle, McDavid's fiancee, attended the award ceremony, too.

The Edmonton Oilers captain recently proposed to his long-term girlfriend. However, Dierks Bentley's little son Knox seemed to disagree with McDavid's choice of ring, as he jokingly mocked the Oilers captain and trolled him in the hall by calling it "too small".

Watch the video below:

Connor and Lauren Kyle have been together for eight years since crossing paths for the first time during a birthday party in 2016. The day finally arrived when the Oilers captain proposed to Kyle on June 22 this year while on a vacation to Chicago.

Kyle described the day as the best of her life and McDavid as the most important person. The couple's journey has been filled with growth, happiness and an abundance of love, which has only strengthened their bond. The couple is excited to spend the rest of their lives together.
