Breaking just now:CALVIN PICKARD just fired his agent after little misunderstanding

It’s been another season for the ages for Connor McDavid. The Edmonton Oilers captain has recorded 106 points through 62 games, a whopping 20 points ahead of Leon Draisaitl, who is second on the team in scoring with 86 points.

With 81 assists, McDavid is eight away from tying his career-high mark set last season. As it stands, McDavid is on pace to record over 100 assists, a feat no player has accomplished in the 21st century.

In fact, the last player to reach the 100-assist mark was Wayne Gretzky, who recorded 121 with the Los Angeles Kings in 1990-91. The only three players in NHL history to hit the 100-assist mark are Gretzky (who did it 11 times), then Mario Lemieux and Bobby Orr, who each did it once.

On Thursday’s episode of Daily Faceoff LIVE, Tyler Yaremchuk and Colby Cohen discuss the Oilers’ 7-2 win over the Washington Capitals on Wednesday, and if the 2015 No. 1 overall pick can reach the milestone.

Tyler Yaremchuk: When you look at the Art Ross Trophy race, McDavid is nine points back of Nathan MacKinnon with a handful of games in hand. With 81 assists and 18 games to go, do you think McDavid can hit the 100-assist mark?

Colby Cohen: I think he can. I think because it’s in sight, he’s going to take his game to another level. But I hope it doesn’t stop him from shooting the puck more, because we always want him to be a little more selfish.

Look, I think he’s shown us that there’s no better hockey player in the world, and there’s probably no guy who has ever been better in terms of skill. Nothing is ever off limits for Connor McDavid
