Tim Shipton sent a statement to CTV News, saying that the player has gone into two-weeks of isolation for the safety of himself and his loved ones. 

Now, after a short period, the athlete is back in action and completely recovered. 

McDavid wears number 97 and is a total fan-favourite. 

He's beloved to the Oilers and their fanbase and received an outpouring of love and support when news of his COVID-19 diagnosis surfaced. 

Looks like those good vibes did the trick.
