I don't think anyone has said that, have they? Every Flames and Oilers fan that has commented on it has seemed to suggest it kicks the can down the road and they'll decide what to do as the coming seasons progress. I haven't heard a single Oiler fan suggest it guarantees he's staying, other than it guarantees he's staying longer than before he signed the deal.

It doesnt gurantee anything...he can ask for a trade with a tradeable contract at the first sign of trouble

You picked my quote out but we were discussing a hypothetical where the Oilers are out of the race at the deadline

Also, E=NG

Ya, but the Deutschbagger much prefers employing the pitchfork method…

McDavid grabs the stick and holds it there lol

If it's the other way around, McDiver doing to spearing, there wouldn't be a penalty called.

I noticed that too. He grabs the stick to hold it between his legs as he goes down and then releases it again. The McPenaltyDraw special.

[memphusk]

Well we all know it's another trick because he has no balls.

[Redrum]

Damn, that takes some serious conditioning to grab the stick and skewer your own sack even further to slightly increase the chances of an already guaranteed call.

No balls. No D. No guts. No heart.

I'm surprised he didn't sneeze.

Seriously. The "draw a penalty" reflex runs strong in 97.

[CaptainCrunch]

Must resist joke about McDavid holding a firm shaft against his testicles.

Mavi agent has to explain the new contract and has 2 choices:

1) my client is an idiot and we all made less money. Or

2) my client took less money so that his team could use the gap to bring other players in.

Oilers response:

We signed existing players to retirement contracts. Oh and one player who didn’t want to play in Canada but had no option and took a 1 year deal.

Depends when they run into LA in the playoffs.
Corey Perry can't lose in the finals if he doesn't get out of the divisional round.

It would actually be the best story I can think of.
Corey Perry bails on the Oilers and helps the Kings finally get over the hump of beating the Oilers int he playoffs, only to keep his 2nd place streak alive.
