I don't think other GMs will put through offer sheets as they'd get black listed among the group. There's a reason why offer sheets are very rare...
McDavid also knows, like other players who could get more, that if he wants to win, taking less allows the team to surround him with better players...
I'd love for the Oilers to get screwed, but just like most other teams don't get screwed by their pending free agents, I simply don't see high odds of it happening.
