But if you want to say I have to draft him tonight and can't be certain about his next deal then there are 3 scenarios to weigh:
A. He signs 8x11-12M
B. He signs ~8x13-14M
C. He doesn't want to sign and you trade him for a Lindrosian haul.

With Scenario B it's a tough call - Barkov/Point are better bang for your buck over the longterm, but not quite as good overall and you don't get 1 exceptional value year. Or just 4 years of McDavid. More of a toss-up.

Scenario C is obviously adding layers upon layers of fantasy, but you're not coming away empty handed.
If in this scenario McKinnon won’t sign an extension with anyone, you won’t get an Lindrosian return, he’s a one year rental. He certainly wouldn’t be worth Makar.
