Why ask for anything less if your client is the best player in the NHL at 20 years old?

Because a lot of players who were 20 and the best in the world didn't ask for that much?
McDavid isn't going to ask for even close to the max, he'd be setting himself up for failure and he knows that. A number around $11 million would make sense for him and totally not handicap the team.
