Connor McDavid injured vs. Blue Jackets, won't return (upd: back after missing 3 games)

[CantHaveTkachev]

Key words here being “he is now”, which has no barring on the statement that was made when he wasn’t.

but your statement was misleading and you know it

.98 is below a ppg, nothing misleading about it

You are technically correct. The best kind of correct.

does that include the 37 games from Drai’s rookie year when he was a 0.24 points per game player?

No, but most were from McDavid’s rookie year when Drai was a 50ish point player

 

[GreatSaveLuongo]

Small sample size, but it appears McDavid is the weak link, with him out Drai is carrying his team.

And that is how easy a hart,ross lindsay slip away.

Better doesnt mean greater remember. Crosby still ranks higher all time regardless of what I wrote.

They play better without him should trade the bum

No.
EDM P% with McDavid .582
EDM P% w/o McDavid .458
since 2015/16 (last game with 37 seconds wasn't counted)

Wins is all that matters, and Drai is carrying the team

 

[Zerotonine]

6 points in 2 games for Draisaitl with out mcdavid. That's impossible apparently according to hf posters

 

[VeteranPresence]

Let's see how deep this roster is without their best player. Everyone has been saying this is the best and deepest offense in the league. If true then playing a few weeks without their captain should be a cake walk.

Big oof.

"product of McDavid!"

HF has never been known to have intelligent posters who actually watch the Oilers

Drai is carrying his team too:
EDM P% with Drai .564
EDM P% w/o Drai .414
since 2014/15

Way to torpedo your own fanbase too

If Drai plays with increased motivation without McD...then Oilers should have traded McD, rounded out the team, mitigated their weaknesses and then maybe have a few cups to show for it... But maybe they like flash more than cups?

I always said, if the Oilers want to win the cup, they have to trade McDavid !!

No body could afford the assets to aquire mcdavid

lol, I take it you were sleeping in a cave during summer 1988?

The next GM who willingly trades a McDavid level player from Edmonton will need a police escort to make it to the airport alive.

I thought Oilers organization would look back to see how they won a Cup when the moved Gretz...but I guess the organization would rather have more individual trophies?

Am I crazy or are you suggesting the Oilers moving Gretzky actually benefited them lol ?
