Connor McDavid’s downsides are obvious: a) the Oilers, b) technically he’s past his prime, and c) the burning orange stems and cones on his uniform tonight. But then again, he is still the most talented player in the sport.
Tonight he carried the puck the length of the ice beating, uh, literally everyone before scoring.
As a gift from the NHL, Connor and his Oilers were able to play against the Toronto Maple Leafs. In the second half McDavid did… well, he did it all.
Earlier today, the Ottawa coach Dj smith spoke about his strategy to contain McDavid. “I don’t think there is any secret,” Smith told Brent Wallace, “Except you hope he gets a day off and you hope he doesn’t have his legs and you hope he misses the net.”
On Saturday against the Leafs, McDavid didn’t have a day off. He had his legs. He didn’t miss the net.
