It’s funny because they were all pissing themselves (almost literally) after the series got tied up. Blubbering like babies
Are you sure they're real Florida fans or not just Canuck fans dressed in Florida colors? I know of at least one off the top of my head...Guy loves it here and will re-sign. Enjoy your summer Oil fans and stop worrying about this.
Also, looking forward to getting my likes back in September. f***ing Florida trolls.
First off I think this scenario is highly unlikely. But if it happened my sense is that they would not trade him until after the season, and then they would try to get as much for him in a sign and trade or a straight trade for his rights as they could. I think the prospect of going for it this year is too tempting.So let's say Draisaitl chooses not to sign now and wants to play the year out, and possibly test free agency and/or sign after this upcoming season. Is there any chance that the Oilers trade him before or during the season or they gonna take a shot at the cup with an unsigned Leon regardless? I feel they will NOT trade him, no matter what, they are built to go for it this season, and I feel that's what they will do. I also believe that he is going to a sign an extension before the season. I was just wondering if others thought there was any chance that they would ever trade Leon.
Their behaviour is so strange, and frankly Nuck like. Similar to the Avalanche in 2022.
We have no rivalry history with them, no real reason to hate each other, and they beat us fair and square. I don't think anyone here has any major issue with them, but they choose to take the tact of basically morphing into Nuck/Flame/Leaf trolls for... reasons?
12.5M 12.5M 12.5M 12.5MBanking on himself? He hasn't done that already by playing imself into a guaranteed 8 year 100mil+ contract, making him one of the highest paid in the league? Anything else is a huge risk for him

Ya it was disgusting. I mean, if you google "Florida man" you see some of the weirdest shit known to man. Makes sense there's some of those muppets in their fanbase.Their behaviour is so strange, and frankly Nuck like. Similar to the Avalanche in 2022.

Depends who is available.So let's say Draisaitl chooses not to sign now and wants to play the year out, and possibly test free agency and/or sign after this upcoming season.

Yes for 5 million. Then sign Leon for 9 millionThey should hire drais dad already
Matthews has a way hugher profile then Draisaitl whether folks want to beleive it or not, hell matthews might even surpass Mcdavid due to the fact he is in Toronto and an american born player which they really push to sell the game.A longer deal is more of a favor to us. The decline in his play as he ages is more than covered by his decline percentage of the cap. We want 8 years. It isn't some sacrifice on our part. He's the one that might ask for less term
Imo a good standard is 13.25 x 8. The same as Matthews but with more years, which reflects that Matthews is a bit higher profile than him.
There is one troll who isn't a Florida fan, yet is anti oiler that seems to provoke alot of oil fans and when they respond they seen to be the one who get smacked for it. No need to mention any names but I'm sure most know exactly who it is.....Guy loves it here and will re-sign. Enjoy your summer Oil fans and stop worrying about this.

Part of your username corresponds to part of their usernameThere is one troll who isn't a Florida fan, yet is anti oiler that seems to provoke alot of oil fans and when they respond they seen to be the one who get smacked for it.

He/she/them seems to be untouchable
They just need to convince Nurse to agree to a mutual contract termination with the team and we're all set.
not sure how legit sources they have...but a few "important" people follow them including Stauffer and Dreger
this would be awesome
you know what to doAlmost everyday for the last couple of weeks my wife has asked me about the Draisaitl contract with a worried look. This was very unusual behaviour. Today I found out why? It is or 35th anniversary and as a gift she gave me a signed Draisaitl jersey that she ordered in February. Seems she thinks it will be bad luck and now he will move on. I tried to reassure her that he will sign. But until that happens things look tense here I am afraid.

The other thong to consider is that you won't really lose him for nothing. You would have roughly $13M in cap space to spend. You're no going to replace Leon but you could use that money to at least remain in the hunt.
JJ is a forward thinking guy. There's no chance they run this to free agency and if they do they're fools. You either extend him this offseason or you trade him. You don't go into his free agency year with the black cloud of his future with the organization hanging over he and the team the whole season. Look at how that worked out for Calgary with Gaudreau or the Isles with Tavares.So let's say Draisaitl chooses not to sign now and wants to play the year out, and possibly test free agency and/or sign after this upcoming season.
