Must be exhausted on the end of a shift? Nope. Puck comes back to him on his own blueline and he is full of energy, breakaway and scores. Everyone is saying what a great goal.

He scored because he is lazy on defense and will sacrifice it for a chance at offense. Reminds me of a beer league guy skating slowly back and then when his team gets the puck is at the red line. Scores lots of points, won’t win a championship.

I hope the Oilers sign him long term, they deserve each other.

It's not like this is an isolated incident either.

His big highlight goal against Toronto last year, same thing. The play only happened becasue McDavid was WAY behind the play.
