They'd certainly like to, but if McButtercups's representation wants to maximize their earning potential there will be 20+ suitors more than willing to make a $10+ mil x 4 year deal to bring him straight to UFA at 25.
Knowing the league though, they'll change RFA rules at some point before he's eligible to make the Oilers be able to retain him cheaply.
