If a prospect caught fire and needed a $10M+ contract today we would be, at worst, in the Oilers situation. In 4-5 years we’ll be laughing.

And by that point they’ll have McDavid making $16M and Drai making $12M+.

How do our players compare to theirs? Also, how do the ages of these compare? This time it’s probably better if we don’t brag about spending 10M less than Oilers players.
