McDavid topped the NHL with 4-4-8 - with all eight points earned on goals that tied the game or gave the Oilers the lead - in four outings to propel Edmonton (6-3-0, 12 points) to a perfect week and into second place in the Pacific Division. After being held off the scoresheet in a 6-3 win versus the Pittsburgh Penguins Oct. 24, McDavid rebounded with the primary assist on Ryan Nugent-Hopkin's tiebreaking goal in a 3-1 triumph over the St. Louis Blues Oct. 26. The Oilers captain then compiled seven points over a pair of comeback wins, recording 3-1-4 (including his second hat trick of the season) in a 6-5 victory against the Chicago Blackhawks Oct. 27 and 1-2-3 (his League-best fourth three-point performance of the campaign) in a 3-2 triumph over the Calgary Flames Oct. 29. McDavid, who established career highs in goals (44), assists (79) and points (123) last season en route to capturing his second straight and fourth overall Art Ross Trophy as the League's scoring champion, currently paces the NHL in both goals (9) and points (18) through nine contests thus far in 2022-23.
