The Drai thing is going to be interesting because his agent mentioned a end of August deadline, because his player doesn't want to be distracted with contract talks during the season.
Sure they'll say the usual, we'll talk to Edmonton at the end of the year. But the bottom line is that if Drai isn't signed, unless he has a terrible year, he's as good as gone. With the Oilers having no prospects and no picks, the Oilers should move him at the trade deadline, or risk losing him for nothing.
