The Edmonton Oilers captain's emotions were on full display last night following the Oilers Game seven win over the Vancouver Canucks. It was a game that went down to the wire - despite the Oilers virtually dominating the entire contest.
McDavid didn't have a point in last night's game - but it was a true team effort across the board. Stuart Skinner had another great game - while Evan Bouchard and Leon Draisaitl led the way offensively.

But that doesn't mean that this win means any less to McDavid. In fact - it might mean more to him.
McDavid's emotions were on full display once the final buzzer rang.
Winning is what fires McDavid up. After years of getting personal trophies and awards it's clear what really matters to him - getting one step closer to the Stanley Cup.
He was so fired up with his teammates that in a post game interview on the ice - he was losing his voice.
After seeing the other video before this one is clear to see how he was losing his voice. All of the yelling and celebrating made him sound not like himself.
After a tough seven game series - I can't say I blame him for letting it all out.
