Oiler fans still have PTSD from the Gretzky trade, no way they are supporting a McDavid trade no matter what they get back. I imagine the next PR damage control statement will be that McDavid wants to concentrate on his season and talks will resume after the end of the season. They will spin it there is nothing to see here, his heart is with the Oilers and nothing to worry about yayaya and Oiler fans will buy it right until the end.

Also in a cap world, the return for McDavid in a trade isn’t as lucrative as one thinks. It would be hilarious.
