Under 14 is a hometown discount, we’ll see

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Well duh. Pipe dreams aside, McDavid and Draisaitl were always going to be Oilers-for-life (or close to it).

I hope its under 14.

If not, oh well.

 

[A1LeafNation]

I guess that means McD staying. Congrats Oiler fans.

If it is the Oilers window is the next 2 years for sure. Mcdavid will get a big raise and so will Bouchard. Potentially looking at 40M for 3 players

Nice day in Oiler land . I expect Mcdavid to follow suit

 

[LeafsNation149]

Largest $ amount in NHL history coming up

It's actually a special type of contract, where his full caphit is paid by Edmonton and counts towards the Oilers..... but he plays for Vegas.

Come on Leon, it's only 5 months until Stone is on LTIR and we go shopping, you can hold out that long.

At least they have a window.

Gotta find a way to ship out Nurse.

 

[Ol' Jase]

Sounds like it's done. 8 x 14M.

 

[Namikaze Minato]

$14 x 8

Good deal for both sides.

 

[LeonDraisaitl]

Love it! Leon is not the type of player you let walk under any circumstances

 

[Idiot Stick]

good for him, playoff monster

thankfully he wasnt vs us

 

[MessierII]

8 x 14 not terrible but would have liked a bit less. This signals everyone is staying though so that’s a good thing.

 

[Satan]

14 sheets wowza

McDavid should demand a trade to a large U.S. market so that he can be more famous. Preferably an original six team.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Fair deal

 

[Ol' Jase]

Wouldn't matter what the AAV was, considering the incredible value his last contact was.

This should all but lock McDavid in long-term as well. Fantastic.

 

[Bouboumaster]

It's a lot of dough
