Connor McDavid Is NOT HUMAN Warmups Before Devils Game 12/21/23

NHL SUPERSTAR Connor McDavid takes warmups before the Oilers 12/21/23 game vs the New Jersey Devils.
This guy is truly special. He makes everything look effortless. Some of the insane moves he practices during warmups he actually does IN GAME.
One of the most talented players the NHL has ever seen for sure.
I will surely be buying a ticket every time he is in town for the rest of his career.

[@danojc4966]

I want to see a team Canada with McDavid, MacKinnon, and Crosby starting line, and the look of fear on the faces of the opposing defensemen.

[@runninwiththedevils]

That would be some line!

[@FelixLanzalaco]

not that simple, their styles would clash

[@Jefe692]

Canada has a lot of offensive options but weak on goalies

[@Jefe692]

How about Mcdavid, bedard and Marchand?

[@djayjazzz]

That is 2 centers, take off bedard for sure @@Jefe692

I'm 60yrs old, born, raised and still in Edmonton. So getting to see Wayne do his stuff in the 80's and now McD now😊

[@runninwiththedevils]

@joedude4822 consider yourself beyond lucky! Two legends.

[@kozykid]

Bruins fan here, you fans are so lucky to see that level of talent! Kudos!

[@runninwiththedevils]

@kozykid I’m a Devils fan! Was enjoying seeing CMD up close when Edmonton came to town

[@danferguson2724]

Edmontonian all my life here. We know how lucky we were to have 99. And now McD? It's heartening to see him appreciated by other hockey fans.

[@moemanncann895]

We are glad we have him up here in Edmonton, we watch him alot and are still amazed at his skills. He,along with the rest of the team deserve this run they are on. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@runninwiththedevils]

@moemanncann895 the guy is special, consider yourself blessed!

Lol I’m in the corner with the Orange oilers jersey and tan hat. Was surreal to see McDavid up close

[@runninwiththedevils]

@dente47 amazing! McDavid up close is an experience for sure

[@paulelliott3220]

He’s a brilliant skater Seen him play a few times in Canada as a loooong time Oilers fan from the UK Lightning fast and so much skill it’s testament to damn hard work Nice video Happy Christmas !

[@runninwiththedevils]

@paulelliott3220 his skating is next level. His hands are vision are off the charts. You can tell he didn't get here by accident. Happy Holidays and LET'S GO DEVILS!!!

[@End3r11]

I live in the UK as well! Glad there are some hockey fans here.

[@tberreth33]

I don’t live in an NHL market anymore, but I make a point to see a few Oilers games per year, either in Vegas or Seattle. To me, the warmups are almost better than the game. The players, just taking it easy, show how much incredible skill they have. Thanks for posting this!!!!

[@runninwiththedevils]

@tberreth33 I love watching warmups as well. It is always interesting to see how the top guys get prepped for the game.

[@Brenmaster24]

The best thing about being a hometown oilers fan is the ability to watch him play live on a consistent basis. Worth the price of admission everytime. Magical player, night in night out.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@Brenmaster24 consider yourself blessed! McDavid is special...

[@efaith780]

This is a good video of Mcdavid being normal. In the game he’s just godly and un real. I wish there were videos of him in game shifts by shifts. That would be cool

[@Chromedragon79]

First 1:49 looks normal, then he slips into ice cheetah mode for a lap. The acceleration is unreal.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@Chromedragon79 it is insane to see him flip that switch, live and up close...

[@resabape]

it is the guys with the impeccable edgework that stand out for me. it makes their skating effortless. MacKinnon, Makar, Crosby and Barzal are of the same ilk.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@resabape he makes it look effortless....

[@f13dfx]

@resabape Don’t forget Quinn Hughes when talking about edgework!!!

[@MultiCappie]

Wait till we get to see Phillip Broberg in the NHL. He's a lot bigger than McDavid, but somehow looks very similar.

[@canconservative8976]

Speed & Hands... the 2 most potent skills in the NHL

[@lamborghiniperlini1710]

his hockey IQ is also easily #1 in the league, he thinks the game so freaking fast its incredible

[@orwellknew9112]

I like this view of the players gliding around. So silky smooth, floating over the ice. Their skill and strength are obvious in the way they move.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@orwellknew9112 glad you appreciate it, as do I. Many people on this platform are not impressed lmao.

[@NatsdadsamI]

His blade work is what gives him his advantage, combine that with stick skills, and his awareness/peripheral vision, his hockey IQ is off the charts.

[@troybaier5460]

You forgot his speed

[@Cl2olvleY21]

So pretty much every skill you need to be a great hockey player he has to give him the advantage lol

[@NatsdadsamI]

@Cl2olvleY21 there are LOTS of great hockey players, there are only a few with all thr skills to be great, day after day, game after game.

[@waynekerr67]

Hard not to have awareness and vision when you don't need to look down cuz the puck is glued to the blade 😅😂

[@ElDarren]

Those hands and edgework are top notch!!

[@runninwiththedevils]

otherworldly!

[@mikepetro9679]

So funny in the beginning hes just half ass cruising around probably thinking of did we let the dog out, or where is dinner after the game, then in a blink he turns into superhuman stickhandling and zipping around like he has rockets on his skates ! Man I never get tired of watching his skills, not fair to the league !

[@runninwiththedevils]

@mikepetro9679 when he activates turbo mode, it's over.....

[@rona6063]

I read that he scored off the charts in whatever drill rates their ability to process decisions.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@rona6063 I would imagine he scored off the charts in nearly every drill he ever participated in. LET'S GO DEVILS!!!

That little crossover he does at 1:01... I've been trying to look that smooth for decades dammit!

[@runninwiththedevils]

@markwilliamson4628 keep practicing!

His speed is unreal. He makes top D guys look like Beer Leaguers

@jimwhite-signcraftdisplay6996 Blame the league. I do find it hilarious that sports betting was soooo taboo before it was legalized. Once it became legal, every league, team, player rams it down our throats. It is interested, I think sports gambling is more dangerous than any alcohol or tobacco products can ever be. McDavid just riding the wave of $$$. He wants to ensure nobody with the last name McDavid will ever have to work again.
