McDavid Asks Teammates to Come to Camp 2 Weeks Early

[HockeyVirus]

Not really, he's the captain of the team

Someone wrote a story about it.... that's all. You could write this story about 20+ other guys around the league, but McDavid is the best player in the world so it was written about him.

Yup. This is the typical fluff piece we get this time of year. Leaders on the team being leaders and wanting to win for the season. Guys in best shape of their lives and on another level.

These are easy stories to write that generate interactions because fans eat it up about players they like.

Like most articles, it’s purely for clicks and traffic to the site

Like every team in the league shows up to camp early and has been for like at least a decade now lmao

 

[Devil Dancer]

Oilers gonna be unstoppable in the preseason.

Fixed title: McDavid asks teammates to do what every other team is already doing

 

[Seanaconda]

It's ok, the game is shite so no need to spend too much time.

Bg3 tho

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Wanted them to come early so he could personally break the news to them about requesting a trade to the Leafs

Every team has informal skates at this point. Some better attended than others. This is nothing out of the ordinary.

Crosby, Mackinnon and Marchand run a summer hockey camp in halifax where they go at each other 100% with the aim of just getting better at everything.

Taylor Hall attended once (for a week)and complained "why are they trying so hard in an optional summer camp? It's just practice"

 

[KennyWu]

Maybe he should think of inviting them to play two weeks longer in the spring instead

When the Hall-Larson trade happened, wasn't there a lot of chatter around Hall and his character? Not taking it seriously enough?

Similar energy to this:

Is 9am supposed to be early?

Is 9am supposed to be early?

Standards. Bald standards, in this instance.

All this just to miss the playoffs

It’s tragic, really

lol, any self respecting player should block his number.

Both Jack/Quinn Hughes also joined, no idea if they attend every season.

Thats becsuse they'll be going home at least 2 weeks early at the end of the season.

GM McDavid and telling players to practice help paddling his secondary powerplay assists.

 

[Jumptheshark]

For context. Over here in Europe players have been on the ice since middle of August and in vancouver BC based players are at either 8 rinks (if it is still called that) or UBC. Onterio players are scattered ll over the place practicing

Lol get a better joke. The oilers haven’t missed the playoffs since the 2020’s started.

 

[dirtydanglez]

160 pts incoming.

Lol get a better joke. The oilers haven’t missed the playoffs since the 2020’s started.

The fact they've missed with the "two best players" is embarrassing.

any self respecting player would be trying to learn whatever they can from him.

Mario Lemieux missed the playoffs 5 of his first 6 years.
