McDavid tested positive for COVID-19 Tuesday and was held out of practice while awaiting additional test results, Ryan Rishaug of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
At this point, McDavid should be considered questionable at best to play in Wednesday's matchup with the Maple Leafs. With 53 points in 33 games this season, the generational talent is on pace for an astronomical 132, which would mark his fifth 100-plus-point campaign. If McDavid misses any game action, Leon Draisaitl is a lock to take his spot on the first line while Kyle Turris could be in line for a top-six role.

McDavid notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid carried his point streak into the new year -- it's now at five games with three goals and five assists in that span. The superstar center is up to 19 tallies, 34 helpers, 119 shots on net, 27 PIM and a plus-6 rating in 32 outings overall. McDavid's 53 points lead the NHL, putting him one ahead of teammate Leon Draisaitl, who scored a goal Saturday. The two forwards should continue to pace the league and push each other throughout the year.

McDavid scored two goals in Friday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
He found the back of the net in the first and second periods, but it's a play in OT that McDavid might like to have back -- Jack Hughes used him as a screen, firing home the game-winner between his legs. McDavid extended his current point streak to four games, and on the season he's piled up 19 goals and 52 points in 31 contests.

McDavid recorded an assist and four shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
McDavid avoided being held off the scoresheet in consecutive games for the first time this season by assisting Jesse Puljujarvi's tally. The 24-year-old McDavid is up to 43 points (16 goals, 27 helpers), 91 shots on net, a plus-8 rating and 24 hits in 24 contests. The all-world center has been a little more sporadic on offense since his season-opening 17-game point streak ended, but he remains one of the league's very best talents.
