Not sure if true, but speaks to my theory. They are going all in on McDavid. It’s a good strategy if it happens haha.

Whether they think that's a plausible thing to happen or not, the far more likely explanation at this juncture is "we're all headed back to Philly for the game on Saturday, it's convenient to book one flight instead of two, let's just do the polite thing and offer him a ride."

Also, literally every team in the NHL will promise him the moon, sun, and stars if he doesn't re-up before hitting FA, so they're going to need a lot better marketing pitch than "hey, remember that one plane ride? That was neat, come sign here."

Also pretty sure he resigns in Edmonton. The dude actually likes it there and is a pretty private introvert. His wife also just opened a bar/restaurant in Edmonton. I guess if there is even the slightest chance of getting the best player in the world however, you gotta go for it.

But it’s Comcast baby.

He was able to have both pretzels, AND cookies.

He's best friends with Draisaitl who just extended with the Oilers. Any talk of McDavid leaving Edmonton is wasted.

I think he's coming here. Just call it a hunch. Briere and co. really had us fooled thinking they were a bunch of idiots. McDavid to Philly e5

Good call about Lauren Kyle starting a restaurant/bar in Edmonton. They seem pretty settled.

She’s a Toronto gal so maybe they are open to moving but somehow I can’t see it. Only way would be money, especially with the dollar so stupidly trashy.
 
Can see it now:
Flyers trade multiple 1st round picks to Edmonton for the rights to McDavid and then sign him to an 8 year max deal.

McDavid then gets concussed on opening night, followed by 2 more concussions that season which leave him on LTIR for the rest of his deal.

Can’t wait.
