McDavid (ankle) told reporters he was taking things day by day and didn't rule out playing against Vancouver on Saturday, Tom Gazzola of Edmonton Sports Talk reports.
Considering Saturday's game would come well ahead of McDavid's original 2-3 week timeline, it would seem the world-class center is ahead of schedule in his recovery. Still, until McDavid takes the ice in a full-contact practice, fantasy players may want to take a cautious approach about inserting him into their lineups. Even if he does play Saturday, McDavid's timeline does effectively rule him out for a least two more games versus New Jersey and Vegas on Monday and Wednesday, respectively.
