Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid has been nothing short of spectacular in the Stanley Cup Final, and he's not shying away from the spotlight.

McDavid had four points in the 5-3 Game 5 win over the Florida Panthers, including a highlight-reel goal that kept the Oilers' championship hopes alive.

Win or lose, give Connor McDavid the Conn Smythe. Unreal.

After facing a daunting 0-3 series deficit, McDavid's eight points in just the last two games, has given Edmonton a chance to turn the tables.

Before Game 5, McDavid and teammate Connor Brown had a clear message for the media: "Drag 'em back to Alberta," hoping to bring the series back to Edmonton for Game 6.

😤 DRAG �EM BACK TO ALBERTA 😤

The #Oilers defeat the Panthers 5-3 in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final to send the series back to Edmonton for Game 6.

The series between Edmonton and Florida has drawn attention not just for the thrilling games but also for its travel distances, with each flight being approximately 6 hours long. It's the longest travel gap ever seen in a Stanley Cup Final. McDavid humerously teased the media about their upcoming flight north of the boarder.

Are you guys excited for your flight? I'm just making you guys fly.

McDavid's Oilers will seek to win Game 6 on Friday night in Rogers Place, hoping to drag everyone back to Florida for Game 7 on Monday.
