Connor McDavid's Return Uncertain as Oilers Navigate Injury Concerns

Edmonton Oilers star Connor McDavid remains day-to-day with a lower-body injury, casting doubt on his participation in upcoming crucial games.

Connor McDavid missed Wednesday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights due to a lower-body injury, with his return date still uncertain.
Edmonton Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch remains hopeful McDavid could play as early as Friday against the Arizona Coyotes, but stresses caution given the team's back-to-back game schedule.
McDavid's absence is felt as he is one assist away from reaching a historic 100 assists for the season, a milestone only achieved by three other players in NHL history.
The Oilers, currently second in the Pacific Division, face important upcoming games, including a pivotal match against the Vancouver Canucks.
In McDavid's absence, Dylan Holloway was recalled from the AHL and performed well, scoring in the recent win over the Golden Knights.
