New report reveals injuries sustained by Edmonton's Hyman and McDavid
The Edmonton Oilers are on the brink of elimination against the Vancouver Canucks, and now it's been revealed two top names are battling through injuries.
Despite coming into this series as heavy favourites, the Edmonton Oilers have struggled to dominate the way most would expect, as they are now heading home for a must-win game six to push this series back to a winner-take-all game seven in Vancouver.
Unfortunately for the Oilers, former official Tim Peel has revealed that both Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman are struggling through injuries, and it could potentially cost them their season.
Hearing Connor McDavid is dealing with an injury and Zach Hyman is banged up as well. Every team has injuries but this will be a challenge for #LetsGoOilers if they are to beat the #Canucks
The evidence is already apparent that their captain has been battered and bruised, as his production has taken a major dip in this series after being at his dominant best in round one against the Los Angeles Kings.
If the Oilers are to finally make a Cup run under McDavid, he needs to battle hard to overcome whatever ails him, because if they lose once more, big changes could be coming this summer.
