I read somewhere. No team has won a Cup. With a single contract over 10M.
This was true, but it was a fact prior to Vegas winning the cup.Half your Cap on 4 players. Is not smart. I read somewhere. No team has won a Cup. With a single contract over 10M. A Draisaitl trade now is the Oilers best move. Even though the return would be a little underwhelming to most Oiler fans.
Probably zero chance he gets max contractHe won't sign in Edmonton so gets league max for sure
Oilers were 2 goals away from winning the cup this year with 30M spent on 3 players on a ~84M cap. If the oilers are spending 38M of 93M cap on Mcdavid, Draisaitl, and Bouchard that is easily workable due to how elite those 3 have been in the playoffs for the oilersHalf your Cap on 4 players.

Panthers just made it a team with two guys at 10M winning, with Barkov and bobrovsky if I’m not mistakenThis was true, but it was a fact prior to Vegas winning the cup.
I think this would be great value for the Oilers. I'm sort of expecting him to get McDavid's current deal.In that range, I think 11.5-12

While it may currently be true, I think that adage is more about spending it on the *right* players. If it's because of the Leafs' overpaid core, that's because you're paying too much money for playoff ghosts.Half your Cap on 4 players. Is not smart. I read somewhere. No team has won a Cup.

If a player is going to be making that type of money, then they'll have to perform above and beyond to make up for whatever lack of depth it causes your roster.
That would be a dream for Oilers fans. That is cheap for McDrai. Maybe a little High for Bouchard.I think he takes Mcdavids current deal at a discount of 1-1.5M
12.5M x 8
Mcdavid signs 14M x 8
Bouchard 10.5M x 8
Those three insane playoff production is enough to allow oilers to win or compete heavily for a cup despite so much tied to 3 players
