McDavid, who led the 2026 Winter Olympics in scoring with 13 points, is expected to be in the lineup against the Ducks. The Oilers captain set a record for most points in an Olympic tournament with NHL participation and was named tournament MVP and best forward.
After missing time to represent Canada, where he wore the 'C' following Sidney Crosby's injury, McDavid reunites with teammate Leon Draisaitl for the California road trip. Edmonton, currently second in the Pacific Division, faces Anaheim Wednesday before continuing to Los Angeles and San Jose.
