McDavid Injury Watch Tightens As Lower-Body Issue Lingers

Connor McDavid is listed day-to-day with a lower-body injury, and that is enough to make the entire hockey world hold its breath. The label sounds mild, but around this league, “day-to-day” can mean anything from a quick return to a front office quietly refreshing the training room notes. Edmonton has no interest in testing its luck when its best player is involved, especially this deep into the season.
