So if they pay Draisaitl over 7 (as expected), I really hope they have to play them together, like they did 70% of the time this year. Because the only way that pay structure works at all is if you spread the talent out a bit. Otherwise they are paying $20M for McDavid's point totals and not much more, since he and Draisaitl will be together on most goals for the line.
