I think the sweet spot for most teams with Draisaitl would be $7.85 million x 5. Enticing to the player, Oilers overpay by at minimum $1 million/season, and you save a 1st-round pick in the unlikely scenario the Oilers decline to match. Either that or go $9.8 million x 5 and hope to hell the Oilers stick to their word by matching.

Average annual value Compensation
$1,295,571 or below Nothing
Over $1,295,571-$1,962,986 Third-round pick
Over $1,962,986-$3,925,975 Second-round pick
Over $3,925,975-$5,888,960 First and third-round picks
Over $5,888,960-$7,851,948 First, second and third-round picks
Over $7,851,948-$9,814,935 Two firsts, second and third-round picks
Over $9,814,935 Four first-round picks
