You are correct - it was mainly "Oh he is out for months? Alright we shall see him next (calendar) year"
It's the same as when Crosby had his concussion. Going to be constant updates.

Feel bad for the player as he is something (except when he goes head to head with Sam Bennett).
But for the organization there is nothing as sweet as Karma.

I saw that to and was wondering wtf was going on. But even though he's a dirty oiler, that's pretty darn impressive. Such a shame he plays for the oilers.
As much as all the media attention on him annoys me, I still think he's a good kid and hopefully he bolts when he has the chance. I'm more annoyed that with his picture being plastered comes that nasty-ass oilers jersey being shown at all times.

No question it's impressive but somebody in coaching/management has to control their wad and let a teenager acclimate a bit into the NHL. There's a reason why young players, regardless of how good they are, get sheltered a bit. Keeping him off the penalty kill seems like a no-brainer way to do it.

Was that McDavid's first PK? Or was Mclellan using him regularly on the PK?

Yeah. Fastest guy on the ice, best stick and best at one on one battles. It would make sense to use him there

I slept funny last night and looks like I may have pinched a nerve on the left side of my neck/shoulder. I am convinced it's sympathy pains. We will make it through this together Connor.

McDavid probably thought his injury was a godsend. He got to stop playing for the Oilers for a bit and maybe figured the McMedia frenzy might die down a little bit.
But no sir Connor, its only gotten worse. I bet you wouldnt have believed that.

The McComeback game will be even worse than his debut.
