Connor McDavid will return from a quad injury Sunday night when the Edmonton Oilers visit the Los Angeles Kings.

McDavid was injured on Feb. 8 against Nashville. The Oilers went 3-2-1 in his absence.

“It’s never fun to watch, but it’s always more fun to watch the team win. They’ve been doing that. 3-2-1 is pretty good,” said McDavid.
