Connor McDavid doesn't need a head start, but he'll take one when provided.

Flying the zone with just one defender back, McDavid received a pass in line with Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and won that race with enough ease to use any move he wanted to beat Mike Smith.

McDavid now has 10 goals on the season, and is halfway to extending his multi-point scoring streak to four games.
