Oilers are set to open training camp in just a few weeks, and Connor McDavid has yet to sign a contract extension 👀‼️
With Oilers GM Stan Bowman making several moves to improve the team early in the offseason, inking the Edmonton captain is the last major move to get done before the season starts.
This is the second summer in a row that signing a superstar has been a source of anxiety in Edmonton. The Oilers did the same song and dance with Leon Draisaitl last year before he eventually signed a record-setting eight-year extension on Sept. 3 🤷♂️
According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman on the latest episode of the 32 Thoughts podcast, it’s looking like a new McDavid contract could be following a similar schedule 👀
