Reminds me of Wayne's early days with Edmonton - relentless, efficient and scoring at will. What an example for our young Oilers fans to look up to, eh? This kid has a special gift, much like the Great One had his own unique flair.

@OldTimeHockeyOtto, don't forget to look at the underlying metrics - McDavid's possession numbers are up from last year, but he's still taking on too much individual responsibility. We can discuss his comparison to Gretzky after we examine what McDavid does over a full season, not just a few weeks.
