McDavid day-to-day with lower-body injury

Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, head coach Kris Knoblauch said Tuesday, per NHL.com's Derek Van Diest.

McDavid is questionable for Edmonton's next game, a clash with the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday.

The five-time Art Ross Trophy winner is one assist away from 100 on the season - a feat that's only been achieved by three other players in NHL history: Mario Lemieux, Wayne Gretzky, and Bobby Orr.

McDavid has 130 points in 74 games this season, the third-most in the league behind Nathan MacKinnon (133) and Nikita Kucherov (136).

The Oilers have already clinched a playoff spot but still have a 17.7% chance to win the Pacific Division, per MoneyPuck.
