But the bidding war for a UFA 22 year old McDavid would have been massive. I think that would have increased his lifetime earnings and also let him pick where he played (and since E=NG that would have had value)

22 year old ufas are still subject to ELCs.
Everyone would have been capped at the max ELC.
