NHL Scores: McDavid hits 50 points in just 29 games
As the Oilers were applying pressure in the offensive zone, McDavid retrieved a puck near the boards and with his back mostly towards the play hit a streaking Tyson Barrie with a pass. The defenseman went top shelf and the assist gave McDavid his 50th point of the season in just his 29th game.
