‘True Legends of the Game,’ ‘Crazy Stuff’ – NHL Fans Blown Away by Jaw-Dropping Connor McDavid Stat in Stanley Cup Playoffs

Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid is doing things in the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs that fans and even seasoned NHL watchers are finding hard to believe.

Connor McDavid Makes History With Incredible Playoff Stats

McDavid has now recorded more multi-point playoff games in his career than games where he registered one point or fewer. That jaw-dropping stat lit up social media after the NHL’s official account posted it ahead of the Stanley Cup Finals.

The Oilers will face the Florida Panthers in Game 1 on Wednesday, June 4, with puck drop scheduled for 8 p.m. ET at Rogers Place.

McDavid added to his already impressive playoff résumé during Game 2 of the Western Conference final against the Dallas Stars. With an assist on Brett Kulak’s second-period goal, McDavid became just the fourth player in NHL history to post four consecutive 20-point postseasons — joining Sergei Fedorov, Bryan Trottier, and Mike Bossy as the only other players to do so.

Fans were quick to react to the numbers, calling it “crazy stuff” and labeling McDavid as one of the true legends of the modern game.

Another fan marveled at the Oilers captain’s level of play, calling his performance “seriously unreal”.

Some fans began to believe this could finally be Edmonton’s year, given how dominant McDavid has looked.

Others shared their anticipation for the Finals, highlighting McDavid’s electric presence as a reason to tune in.

These fan reactions just show how his consistency in the playoffs is not just rare, it’s historic.

McDavid Continues To Rewrite Playoff History

Across the Oilers’ three previous postseason runs, McDavid tallied 33, 20, and 42 points, respectively, and he’s already reached 26 in Edmonton’s current run to the Stanley Cup — which leads all players.

And it’s not just the points. McDavid also clocked the fastest skating speed of the 2025 playoffs so far — 23.92 mph on a breakaway in the first round against the Los Angeles Kings. No other player has matched his speed or consistency, as he leads in 20+ mph bursts with 129 in just 15 games.

This all comes after McDavid wrapped up one of the best regular seasons in NHL history. His 153-point campaign ranks 15th all-time by raw points. Only three players — Steve Yzerman, Mario Lemieux, and Wayne Gretzky — have ever posted higher totals.

Adjusted for era and season length, McDavid’s production lands in the top 13 all-time, ahead of many legendary seasons.

Though comparing eras in hockey is tricky, McDavid’s speed, playmaking, and elite vision make his case strong. He may not dominate penalty kills or defensive metrics, but when it comes to creating offense, few in NHL history can match him.

As the Stanley Cup Finals approach, the spotlight will once again be on McDavid. With each game, he continues to prove why he’s considered the face of modern hockey and why fans and analysts alike are running out of superlatives.
