Congratulations Oilers fans! Leon will be the last Oiler to wear #29!

Yeah absolutely ridiculous take. Pretty funny to read.

Draisaitl sets a pretty low bar for Marner

McDavid is actually recruiting Matthews, but Leafs fans are too dumb to see it.

McD is just teaching #34 the ABC of being a captain. Passing down the knowledge to lower beings.
I didn't think of this until you pointed this out

If Drai, McDavid and RNH become lifetime Oilers. I know McDavid will likely get a street named after him but I wonder if Drai and RNH will get theirs too?

This all but guarantees McD re-signs too, it’s like we just signed them both imo.

And after seeing the JT Miller contract, the Petterson one is Lucic/Campbell territory in comparison

I watched Gretzky get sold. Coffey traded over money. I watched Messier get sold. Kurri. Andersen. Tikkanen. Cujo. Weight. Smyth. On and on. So it’s pleasing to see a legitimate superstar sign a contract that will see him retire in our jersey rather than seeing our idols in other colours. I can only hope we see McDavid do the same.
Let’s not be harsh on people wishing the AAV was lower. I do too. The elephant in the room is how short on assets we are and how low on cap space we will be finding ourselves. The goal is the Cup. I hope we will be competitive when paying Nurse, Drai, McDavid and soon Bouchard. I honestly don’t know if we will be able to.
Time will tell, but we have a great player and we kept that great player.

Lol compare Millers contract to the dog shit Petey contract.
Lots of fans hate Daryl Katz. You listen to Drai, and the first person he thanked was Katz.

Draisaitl will still be a star at 36. Likely beyond 36. He's just that great.
Only a week ago my posts were getting deleted for suggesting Draisaitl will take 14+, while many were believing he would come in at 12-12.5.
He was playing on the best contract in the league for 5+ years now, it's his right and he deserves to take as much as we were capable of giving 100%. Superstar player.
We better pray the cap skyrockets though.
