2021, Game 4 vs WPG: 1G+0A, -1, and he turned it over for the OT winner by Conner
2022, Game 4 vs COL: 1G+2A, +1
2023, Game 6 vs VGS: 1G+0A, even
2024, Game 7 vs FLA: 0G+0A, even
2025, Game 6 vs FLA: 0G+0A, -4
7 games, 3G+4A, -3

However as bad as McDavid has been, if you want to see a true bum in elimination games, look no further than Pissy Leon:

2017, Game 7 vs ANA: 0G+0A, -1
2020, Game 4 vs CHI (play-in round): 0G+0A, -1
2021, Game 4 vs WPG: 0G+2A, -1
2022, Game 4 vs COL: 0G+4A, +1
2023, Game 6 vs VGS: 0G+0A, -4
2024, Game 7 vs FLA: 0G+0A, -1
2025, Game 6 vs FLA: 0G+0A, -4

7 games, 0G+6A, -11
