Connor McDavid attacked the off-season from a different angle. The Edmonton Oilers superstar captain hopes it will help his team secure one more victory next June.
in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final, McDavid knew there wouldn't be much time to make physical gains over the summer.Known for an intense work ethic and gruelling training sessions, the 27-year-old eased off the gas ever so slightly this time around with an eye towards being in a better position for October's puck drop.
"My approach this year is to make sure I'm rested, first and foremost," McDavid said."Rest was an important issue and making sure that my body is moving well. Compared to last year at this time, I feel a lot better. That's all I was looking for." McDavid, who agreed to an eight-year, $100-million deal in the summer of 2017, will be eligible to do the same next July.
