McDavid (illness) scored the overtime goal and added a power-play assist, but also delivered a check to the head in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

The two points are nice for fantasy owners, but McDavid's shoulder-to-head hit on Islanders blueliner Nick Leddy late in the first period could warrant supplemental discipline. McDavid has an excellent 85 points in 58 games this year, but fantasy owners will be holding their breath to see if a second absence is in the cards for the superstar this week.

McDavid (illness) will return to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid missed Tuesday's contest against the Coyotes, but he did provide an assist in a 5-2 loss to the Isles the last time he dressed Saturday. The star pivot continues to tear through the league, racking up 31 goals and 52 assists over 57 games this season. The only detraction from his fantasy value comes in the form of his minus-2 rating, which is more the result of an overall poor team context. That doesn't figure to get any better this season, but McDavid's counting stats keep him among the top fantasy options.

McDavid (illness) took part in morning skate Thursday, Jack Michaels of the Oilers Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid's presence all but guarantees he will suit up for the evening's contest against the Islanders, but the team should provide confirmation on the star pivot prior to the contest. He's well on his way to a third straight 100-point campaign and could challenge his career-high 41 goals set last season if he can stay healthy the rest of the way. McDavid can't be benched on season-long fantasy rosters when healthy, but he does face a tough matchup in his return against an Islanders team allowing a league-low 2.32 goals per game this season.

McDavid (illness) wasn't on the ice Wednesday, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he'll miss Thursday's game against the Islanders, per Oilers coach Ken Hitchcock.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid's illness rendered him a late scratch from Tuesday's game against the Coyotes, but rest assured that his status will draw tons of media attention ahead of the next contest thanks to his elite profile. McDavid is on pace for 117 points with a chance to hit the century mark for three straight seasons. It's easy to think he would've hit that level as a rookie had it not been for a broken collarbone that limited him to 45 games.

McDavid is sick and won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Coyotes, John Shannon of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brad Malone will slot into the lineup while Ryan Nugent-Hopkins centers the top line.

McDavid collected two power-play assists in Tuesday's 6-2 loss against Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

The 22-year-old phenom was able to run his point streak up to five games and counting Tuesday. Since the new year, McDavid has been one of the best fantasy assets, racking up 20 points in 14 games. With no signs of slowing down, the 2015 first-overall pick is heading for his third straight 100-point campaign barring injury.

McDavid scored a goal on the man advantage in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss in Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid has racked up 10 goals and 18 points in 13 games since the turn of 2019, including an active four-game point streak. The 22-year-old phenom is poised for his third straight 100-point campaign despite Edmonton's usual struggles.

McDavid scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

The goal was McSavior's 30th. He becomes just the seventh player to hit that mark so far this season. And McDavid returns to a tie with Patrick Kane for second in overall scoring (75 points). Nice game for the young star. And nice to see other Oilers finally scoring, too. It just wasn't enough to bring home two points.

McDavid won the fastest skater competition in Friday's All-Star Skills event in San Jose, clocking in at 13.378 seconds, Greg Wyshynski of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid retains his crown as the winner for the third straight season. An honorable mention goes to Kendall Coyne Schofield, a Team USA Olympic gold medalist who became the first woman to compete for fastest skater, clocking in at 14.346, per Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News.

McDavid was a minus-3 in Sunday's 7-4 loss to Carolina but did tally a pair of helpers in defeat.

EDGE Analysis

McDavid's first assist came on Edmonton's opening goal late in the first period to make it a 3-1 game, cutting the deficit to two after a horrific start. His second -- another primary helper -- came on Leon Draisaitl's power-play marker midway through the third period and made it a 6-4 game, but Edmonton would get no closer. McDavid is now up to 74 points on the season while also sporting a career-high shooting percentage of 18.5.
