McDavid notched an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid has two goals and eight assists over five playoff contests. The center set up Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for the empty-netter to seal the win that put the Oilers ahead 3-2 in the series. McDavid will look to keep the offense rolling on home ice in Thursday's Game 6 with a chance to book a ticket to the second round.

McDavid scored an empty-net goal on four shots, added two assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 7-4 win over the Kings in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid has racked up seven points, nine shots on net, nine hits and a plus-3 rating over three playoff contests in this first-round series. The 28-year-old contributed points on two of the Oilers' four goals in the third period that helped them avoid facing elimination in Sunday's Game 4. As McDavid goes, so will the Oilers, so he'll need to stay hot throughout the playoffs to keep them competitive.

McDavid recorded a goal, three assists, three shots and five hits in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Kings in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid found the back of the net for the first time since March 18, but not even his four-point performance was enough to lift the Oilers to victory in this series opener. McDavid has been displaying unmatched consistency, though. He's recorded at least a point in each of his past 18 appearances, dating back to Feb. 23, notching 33 points (five goals, 28 assists) over that span. His play will be a huge factor in whether the Oilers manage to advance past this first-round series or not.

McDavid logged an assist in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Multiple injuries and a suspension limited McDavid to 67 appearances this season, but he still had time to reach the 100-point mark for the fifth year in a row and the eighth time in his 10 NHL campaigns. His 1.49 points-per-game in 2024-25 was his lowest scoring pace in six years, but he continues to be one of the most skilled and impressive players in the league. In addition to his 26 goals and 74 helpers, McDavid had 196 shots on net, 40 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-20 rating in 2024-25. He'll look to lead the Oilers in the playoffs as they meet the Kings in the first round for the fourth year in a row.

McDavid (rest) will suit up for the regular-season finale against the Sharks on Wednesday, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid has played in just three of the Oilers' last 12 games but managed to garner nine helpers in that trio of appearances. The world-class center's absence Monday was deemed precautionary, so it shouldn't be a surprise to see him returning for the final game of the regular season. With just one more point, McDavid can reach the 100-point threshold for the eighth time in his 10-year NHL career.

McDavid will miss Monday's matchup with Los Angeles for precautionary reasons, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid hasn't scored in his three games back from a previous lower-body injury, but he has racked up nine helpers over that stretch, including two with the man advantage. The 28-year-old center is likely just being rested ahead of the postseason, so fantasy managers shouldn't have to worry about his availability when the playoffs begin. McDavid should probably be considered questionable at best for the regular-season finale versus San Jose on Wednesday.

McDavid provided two assists, four shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid has nine helpers over three games since returning from a lower-body injury. He assisted on goals by Connor Brown and Viktor Arvidsson, which opened and closed the scoring in this contest. McDavid's now at 99 points (26 goals, 73 helpers) with 195 shots on net and a plus-19 rating across 66 appearances. The Oilers' injury situation will likely force McDavid to stay in the lineup for the last two regular-season games, but that should give him plenty of time to secure the eighth 100-point campaign of his career.

McDavid recorded four assists, four shots on net, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid has seven helpers over two games since he returned from a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old earned two of his assists Friday on the power play. He's matched his jersey number in the points column with 97 (26 goals, 71 assists) across 65 appearances, and he's added 191 shots on net, 39 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-16 rating. The injury doesn't look to be bothering him, and with the Oilers missing a lot of other players, McDavid may have to suit up for all three remaining regular-season contests.

McDavid notched three assists, four PIM and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid led all Edmonton forwards with 20:35 of ice time in his return from an eight-game absence due to a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old picked up right where he left off -- he's amassed four goals and 18 assists over his last 14 outings. The Oilers can't really afford to rest any forwards until some of the injured ones return, so assume McDavid will continue to play as long as he's healthy. He's now at 93 points (26 goals, 67 helpers) 187 shots on net, 35 PIM, 39 hits and a plus-14 rating over 64 appearances. He'll have up to four games to make a push for the 100-point mark, a level he's missed just twice in the first nine years of his career.
