In the past few minutes, the Edmonton Oilers were on the ice for their daily training, and journalist Ryan Rishaug from TSN published extremely concerning images.
Star forward Connor McDavid appears to be seriously uncomfortable:
It's a clip, but reporters are reporting that McDavid appeared uncomfortable throughout practice. It's his left leg that's the problem.
Obviously, if McDavid were to sit out, it would be catastrophic for the Oilers, but let's wait and see.
One thing is for sure, he is probably not at 100%, but even a McDavid at 80% is probably the best player in the NHL.
Note that the next game of the Oilers-Kings series is Saturday.
McDavid, 26, has 153 points (64 goals) in 82 games this season, and added 8 points in 5 games of the 2023 playoffs against the Kings.
