Oilers captain Connor McDavid makes speedy recovery, returns to action against Vegas

Connor McDavid retured from injury — well ahead of schedule.

The Oilers captain re-entered the lineup when Edmonton hosted the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday.

McDavid suffered an ankle injury early in a game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Oct. 28.

The team announced the 27-year-old would miss up to three weeks of action, but he’s instead good to go after just nine days on the shelf.

The three-time Hart Trophy winner as NHL MVP has three goals and 10 points in 10 contests this season.

Including the game where he was injured, the Oilers (6-6-1) went 2-2-0 minus McDavid.
