You can look at a guy like Matthews though that is a lot closer to McDavid's career earnings because he pushed the envelop as far as how contracts are being done in the league. There is a reason that McDavid changed agents recently, and it's not because his old agent was being promoted by the Oilers.
Yeah. This.

Mathews' contracts are amazing. I love the way he bets on himself and structures them.

But Connor also seems to know that as soon as he gets hurt or old and loses a step, his effectiveness is greatly diminished. So take the money now.

I always love this stat. Makes me chuckle every time.
