My guess is they want to show that he's not hurt, that he's got the competitive fire AND that the organization is treating him carefully and looking out for him.
The media gets their hype package delivered a few weeks ago with the main talking points, from the Oilers. I'm sure the 1st bullet points have to deal with how to frame the McDavid situation.
And the fact that it's pointed out it's the organization, not just the coach, making the call, is more telling.
Surprised at Lucic and Rieder. Though Rinaldo for sure tonight.
