I have no doubt in my mind that Treliving would've been able to negotiate this better. He kept Johnny, Mony, and Hamilton all below the Gio cap.

But hey, when your handing out 4 million to Russell and 6 million to Lucic how do you try and talk McDavid into < 13.5?

Charelli's gonna have this team in cap hell in 2 years easy.
Ha, you sound like an Oiler fan expecting McDavid to sign for way less than market value just to help the team!
