Connor McDavid shares injury update after brief scare vs Ducks

Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid briefly left the ice in the second period of Game 2 of the 2026 NHL playoffs against the Anaheim Ducks after his right leg appeared to buckle following a collision with teammate Mattias Ekholm and Ducks defenseman Ian Moore. McDavid returned to finish the game, logging over 24 minutes of ice time, and downplayed the injury saying it was fine. Despite completing the game, McDavid has been held pointless through the first two games of the series.
