As stated several times in numerous places around here, McDavid and Draisaitl contracts will not hurt the Oilers. They have plenty of those that still might/will though.
There will be no offer sheets. McDavid will be extended as soon as is possible, without any real negotiating. They will hand him the contract to fill in a number. The term will be of greatest interest. Does McDavid give them max term at reduced rate (meaning 10M+), or does he put a time limit to build a winner (at that reduced salary)? Like to the year before his UFA eligibility.
