Connor McDavid accidentally reveals his injury on live TV
Concerns Rise Over McDavid's Injury from Last Night's Game.
Recent footage has emerged showing McDavid discussing his injury with the Oilers' medical team.
Attention was drawn to McDavid at the end of the Oilers-Jets game and during the overtime, especially when he was seen on the bench. He didn't play towards the end of the third period and missed all of overtime, suggesting a potential injury. Some think the injury occurred when McDavid was skating.
The exact nature of McDavid's injury is still unclear. However, he seemed to tell the medical team that he might have torn something.
Here was McDavid's last shift. I know @jedrock43 can read lips. Did McDavid say «tore something» to TD Forss?
While it's too early to tell, and the conversation wasn't clear, this gives us an idea of McDavid's initial thoughts.
McDavid Tried to Come Back But Couldn't
McDavid did try to skate between the third period and overtime but didn't come back for the rest of the game. The Oilers' head coach gave some insights post-game.
Woodcroft on Mcdavid. «It appeared to be muscular... just to me as i watched during the play. we'll see. I'll have more information tomorrow."
He added he hasn't spoke to trainers yet.
A 1-3-1 start and potential McDavid injury. Couldn't imagine a worse start for the Oilers.
More details will follow.
