Seravalli was on tv 2 hrs ago saying that McDavid is going to take his time to see if Edmonton is the place he wants to be.

So who knows.

Ok, I just checked them out and last year at this time they were reporting that Evander Kane was going to be ready for training camp and would start the season. Does not seem very reliable to me.

Depends on how long the Oilers held Kane out after he was medically fit to return, and whether the surgery he had could have been postponed. Lots of shenanigans with his LTIR last season.

He's had 10 years to figure that out. I knew in the first 10 seconds that Edmonton wasn't a place I wanted to be.

Are you even allowed within 50 feet of an elementary school anymore?

LOL, I call everyone kid. Because I'm old. Try to be a bit more chill.

I have it on good authority that the rumour about Edmonton being No Good is in fact, true.

If Buffalo had drafted him, he would be playing for Vegas and had won a Cup already.

It’s usually the darkest just before sunrise.

That said, he and his agent should know better than to trust anyone in the Oilers organization.

Only three weeks until training camp. Has McDavid signed yet?

3 to 4 years at $16M AAV is what we are hearing as of today does that change between now & then…..let’s see.

So today is the day.

Mavi diary - day 30.

Dear diary. Well, it’s the day. The day of the big one. Correct! Entry #30.

I saw a picture of me and I wanted everyone to know that it’s definitely fake and obviously AI because no one has seen me smile. I don’t even know how. The best is a smirkish thing or yelling. Don’t be confused diary.

Speaking of confusion, there seems to be some related to building the oilers into a forever contender. I’m no judge of talent because there’s me and everyone else, but even so I don’t think that GM Stan actually knows how to make the team better. I spoke with Leon and he doesn’t believe that 8 years for him and 8 years for Trent Frederic is enough. Stan needs to treat more people like those jerks Broberg and Holloway. How selfish were they by not taking hometown discounts so Leon and I could max out. And so they have to get more money in St. Louis but don’t get to play with me.

I’ve been bouncing at Lauren’s bar recently. I had to throw “David staples” out because he was standing on a chair taking a leak in a big metal barrel. I use quotes because no one has actually ever seen that guy at a hockey game and I didn’t recognize him as he never attends games. He said that this is what urinals look like so what was the big deal. I was worried about splashback on people eating from the metal trough while staples was leaking. I think I’m in the right.

I hope Leon comes back from Europe soon. Ron Maclean has been hanging around outside and Leon can get pissy with him to make him go away.

My network Sportsnet reported that I’m close to signing…but I think they are referring to my signing of my application for more money for Lauren’s bar.

I’m not sure what other signing people could be referring to.

Later diary.

The Oilers media could never fathom why a player would want to leave the powerhouse Oilers so no need to worry

[Shazam]

Oilers led McDavid to the cup final, it's on him to take them to the top.
