Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers have failed to advance in the playoffs once again. The club fell short in Game 6 against the Anaheim Ducks, losing the series 4-2. The Oilers were completely out of sync in this series, and at one point, the Ducks won three consecutive games.

Captain McDavid appeared in all six games, but he failed to live up to his reputation. In total, he managed to score one goal and five assists for a total of six points. Given how high-scoring the Oilers and Ducks games were, these figures are clearly not up to par for the 29-year-old centre.

Connor McDavid has a total of 8 playoff appearances in his career, in which he has been a part of 13 series. Along with McDavid, the Oilers have managed to secure six wins and lost seven series. The center made his postseason debut in the 2016-17 season, when he appeared in 13 games for the Oilers and scored 5 goals and 4 assists for a total of 9 points. After that, it took Edmonton several years to return to the playoffs.

In total, Connor McDavid has played 102 playoff games, scoring 45 goals and 111 assists for 156 points. These are some good figures, and here’s the breakdown of goals and assists over the years.
