Good news for the Oilers.

Connor McDavid spoke to the media today for the first time since suffering a broken clavicule.

The youngster appeared sling-less in front of media representatives and told them that he feels much better than what he expected and that he was even able to do some upper-body exercices.

"Bones heal. You just gotta wait for it to feel 100 percent."

Unfortunately, McDavid did not addressed any questions regarding a timetable for his returns. Also, he did not comment on the play that sent him into the boards violently.

Still, the fact that is recovery is going well is a great news for the Oilers and the league.
