It is a time for the oilers to put out an extra effort to build on.
Mcdavid will be skating in 2 weeks (I broke my clavicle when I was 15 and was riding my bike in 3 weeks) He will be in top shape and ready to scrimage in 5 and be rolling to kick in 7.
it could have been worse... Spinal, or pelvis, or FEMUR.
It's time that he learns his mortal ways early, before he gets a concussion and has to end it early.
They were only 5-8 with him. Oh oh.
Looks like another first round pick for the oil
Also,
This isn't just a loss for the Oilers, many people were tuning in just to watch him. He has been hyped to the max but he's good for the game, IMO.
Sucks that he's gonna miss out on the Calder...
I will bet anyone that he will come back and still win the Calder......
They said he hasn't damaged the surrounding tissues or muscles, so the healing will be much quicker (Thank Gord).
To be honest, I am kind of sad about it. I've always been a Hall fan, I love the speed and intensity he brings, and I found myself identifying the same qualities in Connor's game. Obviously, Connor is a different player and it's very clear that he sees the game very differently. He was exciting to watch - and it was incredibly fun watching him undress seasoned D and goalies.
That being said, I want him to heal properly, so I won't be wishing him back in the line up.
Gord as in Gordon??????
Oh my Gord, that girl seems to beat to her own drum..........
