We’ll take Connor McDavid at less than 100 per cent if that’s what it looks like given his performance in the Edmonton Oilers’ first two games of the NHL regular season. McDavid and linemates Leon Draisaitl and Zack Kassian were in fine scoring form against the Vancouver Canucks and the Los Angeles Kings as the Oilers start the 2019-20 campaign with a pair of home wins. Hockey beat writers Jim Matheson and Derek Van Diest join host Craig Ellingson to talk about McDavid and the Oilers’ start, goalie Mike Smith’s wandering ways and the impact of Adam Larsson’s long-term injury to the team’s defensive corps.
