That's $1.714 million per goal.
Bargain!!
The Oilers couldn't purge that contract by sending a first-round pick with it.
The rest of the league is more than willing to watch that contract rot and watch the OilBoys choke on their four #1 picks.
That's why they couldn't get anything for Hall, everyone knew how good McDavid was/is, so why would they do a sideways deal involving elite assets with Edmonton that would help both teams.
In some fantasy world Oiler fans seem to think the rest of the teams forgot this, as they craft their absurd trade proposals.
Think about Colorado.
They had the worst season this Millenia and didn't get a top 3 pick for it because of the Oilers Sewer System necessitating changes to the draft rules/odds.
