McDavid Listed Day-to-Day After Lower-Body Knock

Edmonton is holding its breath, because when McDavid so much as tweaks a leg, the entire hockey world starts checking the pulse. Sportsnet reports he is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, which is the kind of phrasing that keeps trainers busy and opponents hopeful. The Oilers have seen this movie before, and they know how quickly one small update can turn into a whole lot of roster math. For a team that runs on his pace and panic buttons, every skate from here matters.
