I don't care what anybody says, but I think there's something going on with McDavid. He didn't even register a shot on net last night. At least he had four or five shots on net the previous game. But he was non-existent last night. I hope he isn't hiding an injury or anything like that.

I had a weird feeling about this blues game. It had a win written all over it, but we just sat back on the lead too much, and just didn't generate enough offensively to win the game. Such as life


This confuses me.

Big picture. McDavid is tied for second in the league in scoring, one back from the lead. You mentioned him shooting, he is 15th in the league in shots all while being tied for the league lead in assists. He is driving a huge part of the Oilers offense, as usual. He only has 3 goals but last night I saw that his shooting percentage is 7%. I doubt it will finish that low but he is shooting plenty

Smaller picture, you said he was non-existent last night. McDavid played over 20 mins. He drove the play up ice almost every shift, assisted on both goals and was dangerous numerous times. I didnt try and find shot attempts but he had at least two I can remember that were blocked and one that missed the net. I am guessing if you look up any fancy stats he was pretty dominant. There were a couple times early in the game where his back check broke up odd man rushes by the Blues.

Considering the team has a whole hasn't played well, it seems that both statistically and eye test, he has been really good.
