McDavid’s four-goal night leads Edmonton Oilers past Tampa Bay Lightning 6-2
EDMONTON — Connor McDavid clearly hasn’t given up on winning his second consecutive MVP award.
McDavid scored four times and added an assist as the Edmonton Oilers knocked off the top team in the NHL, defeating the Tampa Bay Lightning 6-2 on Monday. He now has 17 goals and 39 assists with 11 power-play points, closing in on his 100-point total from last season.
“He just has that ability to take a game over,” said Oilers linemate Leon Draisaitl. “There are very, very few players in this world who can do something like that.
“It seems like he is from another planet. It is not fair, really.”
