6 years agoEdmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid has been suspended for two games for his hit on Nick Leddy from Thursday night. It is the first suspension of McDavid's career. He will forfeit $134,408.60 in salary. The talented forward has had another great season with 32 goals, 53 assists, and 28 power-play points through 58 games. The Oilers have been a massive disappointment again this season, but McDavid continues to strive. In his absence, Leon Draisaitl will likely take over top-line duties while Ryan Nugent-Hopkins continues to center the second line. Ensure McDavid is replaced in fantasy lineups while he serves the ban.--Raymond Harrison - RotoBaller
