At some point he’ll regress but I wouldn’t be surprised if his next few years he continues to mature and see further career bests. I want him out of there. Edmonton is no good but realistically he seems to take another step each year.
I would think the NHL/ESPN as a whole would prefer McDavid was in a better market where not only more local/regional attention can be gained, but the organization can actually capitalize off of having a player like him, and ensure McDavid has several more deep playoff runs to come.
