Connor McDavid is officially ahead of schedule after making his ice comeback for the Edmonton Oilers. He has been placed in a more daily role as of right now. It appears that he will have his first chance to make a comeback against the Vancouver Canucks. It will be up to the Oilers and Connor McDavid to decide whether or not it makes sense for everyone if he returns against the Canucks. With Connor McDavid sidelined, the Edmonton Oilers are still expected to follow
Leon Draisaitl's example and continue to dominate as the team's star.
