Connor McDavid Returns to Oilers Lineup After Swift Recovery

The star captain reclaims his spot on the ice just nine days after an ankle injury, defying initial recovery expectations.

Connor McDavid was initially expected to be sidelined for up to three weeks due to an ankle injury sustained on October 28.
The Edmonton Oilers captain will play against the Vegas Golden Knights, marking his return after missing only three games.
During McDavid's absence, the Oilers achieved a balanced 2-2-0 record, maintaining their competitive edge.
McDavid, a three-time Hart Trophy winner, has scored three goals and contributed seven assists in 10 games this season.
Last season, McDavid was the Conn Smythe Trophy recipient, leading the Oilers to the Stanley Cup Final with 132 points.
