The annual compounded return on $166M to $445M in 7 years is a shade over 15%.

Have to take Edmonton value with a grain of salt for the next few years as the new arena coincides with the Oilers turning the corner to respectability if not contender status and McDavid staking a claim to best player in the league. Whatever bump they see is influenced by multiple factors.
