2. Play with his bosom buddy and life long pal Connor.
3. Get paid $$$. Everywhere but Edmonton he will have to pick two out of the three because a team will most likely have to hollow out their cap, assets, or both to acquire him and Conner.
In Edmonton he can pick two, maybe only one, and that selection will not be on a signing with a competent team setup to win.
If either of them want to sign a discount deal to win where they are, then it's their own fault for ignoring the terrible cap and asset management that wasted the 1st half of their careers. |
Would be funny if the flames keep some cap space available for summer 2025 so they can make a trade with some team to take on some contracts (ideally while gaining some picks) so that team has cap space to sign Draisaitl out from under the oilers.
