Connor McDavid's first point on Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs was a big one.
The Edmonton Oilers captain set up Evan Bouchard for a goal late in the second to help the visitors take a 1-0 lead.
Not only did it put him at 50 points for the 2026-27 campaign, but it also set his personal point-streak record, as he's now collected at least one point in all 21 games this season.
McDavid has had two point streaks of 20 games previously in his career, but wasn't able to hit the 21-game mark until Saturday.
If you're wondering how far McDavid has to go before he has a shot at the NHL record, it's a lot.
Wayne Gretzky holds the NHL record for the longest point streak at 51 games, which he set in the 1983-84 season with the Oilers.
Gretzky piled up a ridiculous 61 goals and 92 assists over the 51-game streak, and went on to finish the season with 205 points.
McDavid, now at 11 goals and 39 assists over his 21-game tear, is on pace for exactly 200 points this season.
Only Gretzky has ever surpassed the 200-point mark, a feat he accomplished four times over his career.
