McDavid now has 3 years to win a cup in Edmonton.
They have bad goaltending.
They are as soft as they've ever been and their forward depth is at its worst.
Hyman, Ekholm, Nugent, etc. are all getting older, slower and more injury prone.
They have no good prospects or draft picks.
Next year they will have about 23M in cap space to sign 2 F, 2 D and 2 G. About 3.81M on average which includes replacing their #1 goalie and #1 D. I don't think their depth problem will be solved in the next 3 seasons.
