NHL announces Connor McDavid's new pre-playoff game ritual

McDavid isn't the only one developing a new playoff ritual, as Evander Kane is also getting special treatment to show up in super cars to every game.

The NHL's official account has picked up on McDavid's new ritual of wearing the exact same suit into each game on the Oilers' win streak.

Hockey players are features of habit, and more often than not, they can become ultra superstitious with things within their game day routine. Corey Perry's famously superstitious, and he's having an unreal playoffs.

Connor McDavid himself has used some personal suits in the past to try to gain an extra boost. Last season in the playoffs, McDavid also found himself with a lucky suit.

In his last 6 games wearing his new suit, McDavid has 10 points. If his new superstition is working, they need to let him doing it and start paying for dry cleaning.

The Oilers have an amazing chance to take a commanding 3-0 series lead on home ice and put their rival Vegas Golden Knights on the ropes. Especially dealing with several injuries to key players, the Oilers need to take advantage.

The depth of the team has been the story for this series, but now, maybe they get some truly dominant games from Connor McDavid to punch their ticket to the conference finals. The Oilers captain needs to have a big game tonight.
