How Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers overcame injury struggles, a slow start, and an insurmountable point gap to put himself within range of the NHL’s scoring leaders by only six points as of early March – when the gap was recently as wide as 18 points.

Updated NHL Scoring Leaders (4/2):
1) Kucherov (73 GP, 127 PTS)
2) MacKinnon (75 GP, 127 PTS)
3) McDavid (71 GP, 126 PTS)
mcdavid needs to focused on getting gritter and chasing cups not chasing 100+ assists or points every year
Everyone is betting on him so they have to find a way to work together with the casinos on what he can do from night to night.
he simply decided to make everyone better
It'd be great if McDavid could surpass 100 assists. And the Oilers are definitely THE top bet for the Cup this season.
Love the lemieux reference! Crazy hes about to close that gap! Absolutely incredible
If Mario played today, he would still be the best player in the league.
People just suck this guy off 24/7 huh. It gets really annoying, just like swifties.
I don’t see McDavid ever winning a cup if he plays out his career in Canada, but if he leaves on his next contract and signs with a US team, anything’s possible.
100 assists in a season has only been done by Orr, Gretzky and Lemieux, arguably the 3 best players to ever put on a pair of skates. In fairness to Howe, the generation he played in made it next to impossible to reach 100. One year at least, Crosby was on pace for one but due to missed games because of injury, he never reached the milestone.
It’s crazy how the 4 greatest NHL players are all known for being from just the same 2 teams.
I love how Connor wants to get much assists that's crazy mindset I love it
