He won’t do that again, or go into that 27/28 season with questions every practice about another extension. He won’t play that last year of this contract in Edmonton.
I'm not sure I agree. I don't think he's going to be nearly as hot a commodity as he might think he is, and nothing like as hot as the media imagines. One year of McDavid before he bolts to greener pa$ture$ is not worth a ransom in assets. The Oilers might wind up biting the bullet and keeping him as an own rental.
