When Connor McDavid entered the NHL in 2015, the league and its fan base anticipated his dominance as the future star and face of the NHL. However, during his first season, he only accumulated 48 points due to an injury that shortened his debut year. Since then, he has lived up to the expectations set for him.
Fast forward to 2023, the expectations are much higher for the Oilers and McDavid, as they are anticipated to compete for a Stanley Cup regularly. However, an injury has surfaced for the Oilers' superstar, leading many to wonder whether he will require time away from the game to address his health issues.
According to a tweet, it appears that his hip is the primary concern. His point totals have seen a significant drop, coinciding with his team's struggles and one of the worst starts in Oiler's history.
The Oilers recently faced the San Jose Sharks, and this game was marked as a potential turning point, possibly leading to firings or other demotions within the organization. Unfortunately, the Sharks won 3-2, and the Oilers' record now stands at 2-9-1.
