<p>It&#8217;s milestone night for the Oilers in their final regular season game of the season, as Connor McDavid hit the <a href="https://oilersnation.com/2025/04/16/oilers-game-preview-let-mcdavid-get-100th-point/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">100-point mark</a> for the fifth-straight season, and eighth in his 10 year career.</p>

<p>McDavid hit 100 early into the Oilers&#8217; Wednesday night game <a href="https://oilersnation.com/2025/04/16/game-notes-oilers-finish-regular-season-sgainst-sharks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">against the San Jose Sharks</a> on the Oilers&#8217; first shot of the night. Out on a line with Jeff Skinner and Connor Brown, the trio cycled the puck in the offensive zone, before the Oilers captain sent it to the point to Ty Emberson, whose long shot found the back of the net 8:20 into the game.</p>

<p>With the milestone, McDavid becomes just the fourth player in NHL history to score over 100 points in a season, joining the likes of Marcel Dionne (eight times), Mario Lemieux (10) and Wayne Gretzky (15).</p>
<p>He also became the 13th player in NHL history with at least five consecutive 100-point seasons, and the first since Steve Yzerman hit six in 1992-93.</p>
<p>What makes hitting 100 even moreso impressive for McDavid is that he missed 15 games this year due to injury and suspension. Eight of those came between March 22nd and April 7th, with the Oilers captain returning for three games against the St. Louis Blues, San Jose Sharks and Winnipeg Jets, where he racked up a staggering nine points — all assists — to thrust him closer to 100.</p>
<p>He sat out of Monday&#8217;s game <a href="https://oilersnation.com/2025/04/15/fiery-showdown-edmonton-oilers-los-angeles-kings-preview-of-first-round/">against the Los Angeles Kings</a>, but drew in for Wednesday nights against the Sharks.</p>
<p>The only two seasons in which McDavid didn&#8217;t hit the century mark was his rookie campaign, shortened to just 45 games due to a broken collarbone, still scoring 48 points, and the COVID-shortened 2019-20 season which ended with him scoring 97 points in 64 games played.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a decade of dominance for McDavid. He&#8217;s already won five Art Ross trophies, four Ted Lindsay Awards, three Hart Trophies, while winning the Rocket Richard Trophy and Conn Smythe Trophy once each.</p>
<p>None of those, nor does another 100-point season mean as much as a Stanley Cup win would for the Oilers captain.</p>
<p>The team will begin their hunt for Lord Stanley&#8217;s mug within the next number of days opening the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Los Angeles Kings.</p>
