Want some tin foil hat stupid spammy post?
Scenario.. McDavid leaves and is traded to another team, Oilers get a slew of excellent NHL ready players, picks, cap friendly spend, the whole thing. McDavid comes back in the offseason with a shiny deal with the cupboards full of talent. Oilers ruse the NHL.
Chances of this really happening? The same chances that I am Connor McDavid.

There's no chance. With McD having a full no-move, he would serious limit the field if he were to decide to let us trade him. Knowing they'll have to convince him that he can win there, no one is going to completely strip their cupboards bare for that trade, especially since they'll know that they have to be blessed by McD and his people to make a deal happen.
If McDavid leaves, even via trade, the team will be notably worse off. Return, assuming there's any at all, will be quite disappointing.
Our only hope is that our management can convince 97 that he can still be in the mix for the Cup every year for the next several years. If he signs ANY extension, that's a major win.
If he doesn't? It's armageddon.
|
Also, if McDavid is serious that winning is his priority, I doubt he wants to hamper his new team by making them trade a haul of players/prospects. I think he either signs with Edmonton or leaves for UFA with no return, like Marner.
Winning the cup might be the only thing that will make him stay.
