I imagine there will be teams right now making plans for that. I could see LA, NY and Vegas all setting themselves up to have the cap space set aside to lure in McDavid/Draisaitl. LA might even start with Draisaitl in 2025 and go for McDavid in 2026.
Before everyone points out how cap-strapped those teams are… a lot can change in 2-3 years. For example, I would not be surprised if Stone retires (LTIR) as early as this summer or next year. LA does not really have any “bad” contracts and quite a few of the higher contracts expire over the next 3-4 years. NY is a bit more of a mess but they always find ways to get the best players available in a similar way to Vegas. Another team to watch out for is Nashville. They seem to attract talented players as a FA market these days.
