McDonald\u2019s vows to change restaurant name if Edmonton Oilers beat Florida Panthers McDonald’sIn a post on X\/Twitter by McDonald\u2019s Canada on June 9, 2024, the restaurant change vowed to change the name of one of there restaurants in Edmonton, under one condition. If Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid led the ice hockey team to victory in Monday night\u2019s Stanley Cup Final, the restaurant promised they would name one of their branches after him. The post garnered a lot of traction, and people were excited at the prospect of an ice hockey-themed fast food restaurant. McDonald\u2019s claimed that this would be the \u2018McDs coming together\u2019 and when fans started screenshotting the post to hold the fast food giant to their word, McDonald\u2019s replied saying that they \u2018knew someone who does signs\u2019, insinuating that they would actually change their name. This post got fans excited, and they got carried away with the possibility of conceptual items that could be served at this McDavid\u2019s. \u201cWe\u2019ll be the first to try the McDavid\u201d, someone commented, followed up by a burger emoji. Others were even speculating that this branch could make the McRib a permanent menu item. A McDonald\u2019s employee in Edmonton even commented saying, \u201cIt has to be the one that I work at!\u201d To which McDonald\u2019s replied an eyes emoji, suggesting that this could be a possibility. Considering the amount of interaction from McDonald\u2019s Canada themselves under the post, and the track record that the Oilers have had this season, NHL fans were really getting their hopes up about chowing down on a McDavid before heading to a game in the near future, however, those dreams were dashed in Monday night\u2019s game. Edmonton\u2019s Leon Draisaitl knocked Florida\u2019s Aleksander Barkov out of the game and the Florida Panthers responded by landing an even bigger blow. Oilers\u2019 Evan Rodrigues scored two goals in the third period and at that point, the heated game could have gone to anyone. Finally though, the Panthers used yet another airtight finishing kick to pull away and beat the Oilers 4-1 for a 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final. The Stanley Cup is the biggest championship in ice hockey, and out of a total seven finals, the Florida Panthers have won two, giving them a 91% chance of bringing the cup home at the end of the championship according to past years. It seems that both fast food fans and hockey fans had their dreams crushed on this occasion, but it\u2019s not all bad. Why not try out the new McShaker fries, or the new McWrap that are both available in Canada?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
