McDavid Shares His Frustration Over The Changes Happening With The Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers 2023-24 season has hit a rough patch, leading to the dismissal of Head Coach Jay Woodcroft. The impact of this unexpected move on the players, especially star Connor McDavid, was evident during Monday's practice.
McDavid, visibly taken aback by the coaching change, revealed,
"McDavid looked pretty shell-shocked today. Said he woke up to a text message like everyone else yesterday, that he didn't know it was coming. Similar sense from Draisaitl. Both said this is on the players, not the coaches."
As the team grapples with both on-ice challenges and internal changes, McDavid's reaction becomes a focal point. With his contract expiration approaching and playoff success elusive, the situation raises concerns for Oilers fans.
According to insights shared on 32 Thoughts Podcast, McDavid's frustration is palpable:
"He is legitimately pissed off, he's had it, and he's like legit pissed."
The Oilers face a pivotal juncture in their season, navigating uncertainties with a star player expressing discontent.
