Somebody must be doing something at the Oilers head office; like signing prospects
https://www.tsn.ca/oilers-ink-mcleod-to-3-year-entry-level-d eal-1.1299234
"The Edmonton Oilers have signed forward Ryan McLeod to a three-year entry-level contract, starting next season.
McLeod has also agreed to an AHL amateur tryout contract and will join the American Hockey League's Bakersfield Condors immediately.
The 19-year-old McLeod had 62 points (19 goals, 43 assists) in 63 games with Mississauga and Saginaw in the 2018-19 Ontario Hockey League season. The native of Mississauga, Ont., added 12 points (five goals, seven assists), a plus-8 plus-minus rating in 17 playoff games with the Spirit."
The kid has potential. Let's see what can be made of it."

Very solid move by Kretzky. I would add this to his resume of solid net positive moves since he was made interim-GM. Really, he has done nothing but positive things from day 1, he is batting 1.000. We should just give him the GM job.

Capfriendly has it unconfirmed at 925,000. Which, if true, is a pretty high ELC for second rounder.
In isolation it isn't a huge deal, but you overpay every contract by a couple hundred thousand when you don't have too, and it adds up. Plus you have to qualify them higher for their second contract.
EDIT: Nevermind, fine print says $925,000 is placeholder used until deal is confirmed.
