McDavid was credited with an assist during the 3-1 victory over the Blues on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid, who drew an assist on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' 200th career goal Wednesday, appears comfortable in his new environment. The Oilers swapped their two centers, McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, during Monday's win over the Penguins. Against the Blues, the lines remained status quo, with McDavid, who earned his first point in three games, centering Nugent-Hopkins and Zach Hyman. The trio accounted for two goals, two assists and 14 shots Wednesday.

McDavid scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added three assists in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid had his fingerprints all over the second half of this contest, factoring in on the Oilers' last four goals. The 25-year-old already has a pair of four-point efforts in four contests this season. He's up to five goals, five helpers, 17 shots on net, a plus-1 rating and 10 hits while playing his usual massive role on the top line.

McDavid notched an assist, four shots on goal and three hits in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
It took McDavid until the third period to get on the scoresheet for the third time in as many games. He's recorded four goals, two assists, 13 shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating through those three contests, and four of his six points have come on the power play. Fantasy managers know he's a set-and-forget type of player, though the Oilers' 1-2-0 start might seem a little concerning even with McDavid doing his part.

McDavid scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two hits in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Considering the damage McDavid did against the Flames last year, with seven points in four regular-season games and 12 more points in five playoff outings, this was a little disappointing. He still got on the scoresheet with his fourth goal of the season, three of which have come on the power play. He's added an assist, nine shots, seven hits and four PIM, and he should continue to be a steady source of impressive offense.

McDavid recorded a hat trick, added an assist, fired five shots on net, doled out five hits and took four PIM in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
That's the kind of production you expect from the consensus top pick in fantasy drafts. Three of his points Wednesday came on the power play. With his 11th career regular-season hat trick, McDavid also reached the 700-point mark for his career, doing so in just 488 games. He's the sixth-fastest player in NHL history to reach that mark, and there's a very strong chance he surpasses 800 some time during this campaign. The 25-year-old put up 44 goals and 79 helpers in 80 outings last year, and he's not slowing down any time soon.

McDavid scored a power-play goal on five shots, dished two assists and added two hits in Monday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Avalanche in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid's tally gave the Oilers a 3-1 lead late in the second period, and he assisted on both of their goals in the third. Despite another strong showing, the Avalanche swept the Western Conference Finals. McDavid shouldn't shoulder any blame for the early exit -- he had seven points in this series and finished the playoffs with a spectacular 10 goals, 23 helpers, 61 shots, 51 hits and a plus-15 rating through 16 appearances. At 25 years old and coming off of a 123-point regular season, the sky's the limit for the all-world center in the middle of his prime.

McDavid scored a goal on four shots, logged two hits and went minus-3 in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid tallied just 38 seconds into the game, but the Avalanche would score four of the other five tallies to go up 3-0 in the series. Outside of a three-point effort in Game 1, McDavid's struggled to generate much in the Western Conference Finals. He's still put up a stunning nine goals, 21 assists, 56 shots, 49 hits and a plus-14 rating through 15 playoff contests, but he'll need to recapture his second-round form quickly to avoid elimination.

McDavid scored a goal on two shots, dished two assists and added five hits in Tuesday's 8-6 loss to the Avalanche in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid picked up his 20th assist of the postseason on a Zach Hyman tally in the first period. He then scored in the second and helped out on a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins power-play marker in the third as part of the Oilers' comeback effort, which fell short. With multiple points in 11 of 13 postseason contests, it's been a brand new level for McDavid in these playoffs. He has eight goals, 21 helpers, 50 shots on net, 44 hits and a plus-18 rating.

McDavid scored a goal on four shots, logged four hits, went plus-2 and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Flames in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
This was the first time since May 8 that McDavid didn't have multiple points, but he was able to net the series-clinching goal 5:03 into the extra session. The 25-year-old has been extraordinary in the postseason with seven goals and 19 helpers through 12 appearances, and he's only been held off the scoresheet once. This year will mark the first time the McDavid-era Oilers have reached the Western Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis
McDavid set up goals by Zach Hyman and Evander Kane, with the latter's tally into an empty net. This outing gave McDavid multiple points in 10 of the Oilers' 11 postseason contests. The superstar center continues to cruise on offense with 25 points (six goals, 19 helpers), and he's added 44 shots on net, 35 hits and a plus-17 rating.
