At this point he's already past the point it should be considered rushing back- it's 8 weeks tomorrow. If the bone's healed, it's healed. Sitting him out longer than needed actually hurts his development. Young players need to play. 2 extra weeks isn't going to super heal the bone, that's not how it works.

I swear some people on here probably believe super healing a bone is possible :facepalm::banghead:

I don't think he will be back until Feb 1st.

He is skating and shooting. For the first time in what, 2 months? It'll take him at least 2-3 weeks to get back into shape then at least a week skating with the team till he is game shape.

Was hoping to see him on Jan 8 when I'm going to the Tampa Bay game but I guess I knew he'd likely be out when I blew my money on those tix. Wow, the way they're playing, I almost wish I had saved it for this year.

Guys I heard this on Gregors show but he said McDavid is joining the team in a no contact jersey to join practices and will be back in 10-12 days? Klef another week and Kassian would join the team in 10 days or 10 games im not sure i think its 10 days.

That was Kassian joining the AHL team, not the Oilers just for clarification.

so Mid january as predicted. I am guessing they would want to start him off on road so Jan 14th. 10-12 days takes him to TB or FLA games at the end of this home stand.

I heard that during McDavid's recovery time he invented cold fusion and a perpetual motion machine that created more McDavids with every movement. To Connor McDavid! (raises a glass)

Well, I heard that during McDavid's recovery time he decided to become more of a physical force on the ice (Lucic like), and while training made Chuck Norris say "Uncle!" (Or, submit in MMA speak.)

I heard that during recovery Connor McDavid explored Alberta with Mark Messier who showed him the secret well of talent that allowed the old great Oilers to be soo damn good. McDavid declined its power stating "Nah bro, I got this" and left.

Did that "secret well of talent" come in lines, on a mirror, and included a rolled up C-Note? ;)


I jest... the 80's Oilers probably never bothered with a mirror. Again, I jest...

Mcdavid and Yakupov both skating together on TSN website. Hopefully it means they're returning very soon.

Looks good, he's shooting the puck without any difficulty it looks like.

Funny they don't really focus on Yak at all :laugh:
