McLellan still needs to coach in this league, and even if the Oilers are out of the playoff hunt earlier than usual this season he is going to be doing his damnedest to have that garbage heap-of-a-roster appearing as competitive as possible.

I wasn't totally serious.
McDavid's points this year that I've seen are on his usual rushes down the wing. The Ds are going to read this soon, and he's going to slow down.
