Connor McDavid's award-winning season came with one regret. In earning his second career MVP honor Tuesday, the Edmonton Oilers captain wished his team was still playing.
"We had a special group this year, and obviously we didn't do what we wanted to do," McDavid said, referring to the Oilers being swept in the first round of the playoffs by the Winnipeg Jets.
"But it was still so fun to be a part of, and get the fans of Edmonton excited again for what's to come," he added. "We had so many guys take the next step, and I'm just part of that. If we're all continuing to do that, we're going to go and do some special things in this league."
