Our Edmonton Oilers player power rankings are back. Twice a month throughout the schedule, we will be ordering players based on their contributions and value to the club, taking into account recent feats, statistics, failures and some of the more intangibles. Here is our list this week:_

1. CONNOR MCDAVID (LAST WEEK’S RANK: 1)

It sure didn’t take long for him to climb into the scoring race. OK, it took an uncomfortable amount of time to get to this point in the season, obviously. But once McDavid flipped the switch, he added 18 points (six goals, 12 assists) in 10 games, only being held pointless in one of them to break the streak. (Yes, it had to be that unsufferable 5-1 loss to the basement-dwelling Buffalo Sabres, of course).
