Connor McDavid News: Erupts for five points

McDavid scored twice on nine shots, added three assists and went plus-5 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

McDavid factored on the last two goals of Evan Bouchard's hat trick, then scored a power-play tally and assisted on a Zach Hyman equalizer as the teams traded goals in the third period. McDavid got loose on a breakaway in overtime and took the win for the Oilers with his second tally. Prior to Saturday, he had gone seven games without a goal, though he had seven assists in that span. McDavid is the first player to reach the 90-point mark this season, doing so with 32 goals and 58 helpers over 53 appearances. He has added 38 power-play points, 200 shots on net and a plus-10 rating. Games like this aren't quite routine for McDavid, but he can pull one out of his hat every once in a while.
