The Edmonton Oilers will be getting their captain back as @Connor McDavid is expected to return to the lineup Wednesday.
McDavid missed Monday’s 3-2 OTL to the Vegas Golden Knights but appears to be ready to fly tonight against the @Winnipeg Jets.
Absent from a Tuesday practice, one of the Oilers first in literally weeks, was not only McDavid but also @Kailer Yamamoto. Yamamoto, too, is expected to play tonight against the Jets.
