Oilers' Connor McDavid: Returning against Vegas
Connor McDavid (ankle) will be in the lineup versus Vegas on Wednesday.McDavid's return comes well ahead of schedule after he was originally given a 2-3 week recovery timeline last Wednesday. With the world-class center back in action, he will retake his spot on the top line with Jeff Skinner and Zach Hyman while also linking back up with the No. 1 power-play unit. Prior to getting hurt, McDavid had registered a point per game through the opening 10 contests of the year but managed just two power-play points over that stretch. If he can get going with the man advantage, McDavid should cruise to a fifth consecutive 100-plus point campaign.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Labels self day-to-day
Connor 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 managers may want to take a cautious approach about inserting him into their lineups. Even if he does play Saturday, McDavid's timeline effectively rules him out for at least two more games versus New Jersey and Vegas on Monday and Wednesday, respectively.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Will miss next 2-3 weeks
Connor McDavid is expected to miss 2-3 weeks due to an ankle injury, the Edmonton Oilers announced Wednesday.McDavid was injured Monday with what was initially classified as a lower-body issue. Although his timetable isn't too long in the grand scheme of things, even if he returns Nov. 14 -- which would seem to be about a best-case scenario given his timetable -- that would still cost him six games at a time when Edmonton is struggling offensively with just 2.20 goals per game. McDavid's injury will likely result in either Adam Henrique or Jeff Skinner being elevated from the third line into a top-six role. If Skinner is the one to move up, then Ryan Nugent-Hopkins would probably need to shift to center.
