Obviously, as the Captain of a struggling team. McDavid is likely to be upset at how the team has performed to start the season. With his contract coming up on expiring, talks about whether or not McDavid will stay in Edmonton are high. Recently, Jeff Marek has revealed just how mad McDavid is at the current situation in Edmonton.
For Oilers fans, hopefully, this anger subsides with new head coach Kris Knoblauch as he coached McDavid during his junior career.
Despite the Oilers' struggles to start the year and McDavid's own injuries, McDavid has been able to contribute in the 11 games he has played. While he has only tallied 2 goals, he has added 8 assists for 10 points in 11 games. This may not be the pace that Oilers fans are used to, however, it is certainly pretty good considering how badly the Oilers have played so far this year.
Speculation around whether or not McDavid was involved in the firing of Jay Woodcroft has also surfaced since he was fired a few days ago. However, he has cleared the air that this is not true.
We will see if McDavid and the Oilers continue to struggle, or if they can snap out of their funk.
