McDavid, the reigning NHL MVP, joined Hall of Famers Wayne Gretzky, Bobby Orr and Mario Lemieux in the 100-assist club by setting up Zach Hyman's 54th goal of the season to give Edmonton a 9-1 lead.
Gretzky, the game's all-time leading scorer, recorded at least 100 assists an unbelievable 11 times. He holds the single-season record with 163 in 1985-86 and was the last player before McDavid to hit the milestone, with 121 assists in 1990-91.
Last season, McDavid shattered the salary cap-era points record with 153 as he led the NHL in both goals (64) and assists (89). He's at 132 points this season through two periods against the Sharks.
McDavid himself is on a trajectory to be one of the best players the game has ever seen. Still just 27 years old, McDavid is already a three-time MVP (he also was voted MVP by his fellow players) and led the NHL in scoring five times in his first eight seasons.
