Who knows how good those two will be 2-4 years from now. Draisaitl I have concerns on but McDavid will likely be the best player in the league if he’s not already that now. And their percentage of the team salary will drop as the cap rises. Now like I said I doubt their GM is good enough to build that team around them to win a cup given what he’s done in Edmonton so far, but it’s not like having a player like McDavid is bad even if it costs you 12.5 million. Would I trade Gaudreau and Monahan for him? In a minute even though I like their contracts a lot and think they’re really good players.
