What is wrong with Mcdavid?

[Mr Kot]

People saying he’s playing hurt, why in the world would the Oilers play him hurt ? If he gets a season ending injury, their season is a wrap

Because it's the Oilers lol. Katz probably forced everyone below him to play McDavid for ticket sales.

 

[The Red Line]

If you can put up 9 points in 7 games while injured..... there isn't much to worry about.

 

[authentic]

9 points in 7 games. 11 points back of the Ross???

Outscored by Benn tonight in his age 26/27 season. Not a good look.

 

[CookiesAndMilk]

He’s not 100% but the Oilers depth will pick up the slack.

It only works against Calgary though.

 

[Video Nasty]

The issue with a hurt McDavid is it also means Draisaitl struggles. It’s like an all or nothing situation right now with them


McDavid also isn’t constantly getting his head targeted, but difference

Ridiculous thread gets equally ridiculous responses. I’m assuming Nathaniel is just having fun.

Truth hurts?

Truth hurts?

Yawn. Feel free to go hog wild if McDavid doesn’t have his 6th Art Ross in his cabinet 6 months from now (assuming he plays 70+ games). You look like the damn fool that you are celebrating right now.

Celebrating what? Admitting a player is playing injured it’s pretty obvious this isn’t going to be how McDavid is all season

 

[The GM]

Summer break too short, shouldn’t have demanded the boys come back to camp early

Because if he doesn’t play their season is a wrap anyway

Ah sorry, you and Nathaniel like each others comments so much, I think you’re the same person sometimes.

Nah, it’s too early, if he needs to miss 3-4 games now to get to full speed, they should rest him

Yeah, I think mcdavid learned his lesson here…hopefully

Sam Gagner will bring him to the promised land

 

[ricky0034]

funny thing is he still has a higher points per game than Matthews this year

 

[34]

Overrated

I get that it's tough to remember when you're making prime Crosby analogies but 1 game isn't a season for most players

 

[Freaky Styley]

Oilers are 12th in PP% so far this year. Their team success/astronomical individual point totals are almost completely reliant on the PP. That's the problem

The fact they are 12th with 2 wins is ridiculous still

 

[Coffey]

Possible mental fatigue.

I'm surprised it hasn't happened earlier and they've willed through it for years. I don't think it's sustainable for any player including the great ones to keep motoring through when things are falling apart around them.

You will eventually get weighed down by it.

This is what came to my mind today.
Why try when your defense and goalies will let in bullshit goals a few times every game?

There is zero chance he stays along with Drai. We had our fun.

 

[EdJovanovski]

He senses Hughes, Bedard & Kravtsov breathing down his neck. He’s in shambles, his reign is coming to an end and he knows it. He’s already started lashing out in interviews, he’s having a meltdown as his career dwindles away in front of our very eyes.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Hes clearly still Hurt.

Will be nice when he comes to Toronto

No he’s done losing. He wants to win a cup.
