If the Oilers or Leafs do not have significant success in the next 2-3 years they will be in trouble of keeping their stars. Is Matthews signing his massive extension in Toronto if they still haven’t won a round of playoffs? They have 2 years to figure it out and just took a massive risk with Murray as their goalie. Draisaitl got a contract that looked like an overpay at first glance but has become a massive underpay. If Edmonton is not winning cups why would he stay in that dump for anything more than a huge payday that would be higher than McDavid’s current cap hit. McDavidsy take the same or more money but why would he stay if the Oilers haven’t won anything?
